1944 United States presidential election in Rhode Island

The 1944 United States presidential election in Rhode Island took place on November 7, 1944, as part of the 1944 United States presidential election. State voters chose four electors to the Electoral College, which selected the president and vice president.

Rhode Island voted Democratic candidate, incumbent President Franklin D. Roosevelt of New York, over the Republican candidate, Governor Thomas E. Dewey of New York. Roosevelt ran with Senator Harry S. Truman of Missouri as his running mate, while Dewey ran with Governor John W. Bricker of Ohio as his running mate.

Roosevelt won the state by a margin of 17.33%, which was his best performance in the state of his four runs. Rhode Island was also one of six states that shifted left from 1940, alongside Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, and North Dakota. This was the first time Kent County voted for a Democratic candidate for president in over 100 years, with the previous instance being for Martin Van Buren in 1836; the latter instance was also the first time in Kent's history that it had voted Democratic for president.
