The 1944 United States presidential election in Colorado took place on November 7, 1944, as part of the 1944 United States presidential election. State voters chose six representatives, or electors, to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.
Colorado was won by Governor Thomas E. Dewey (RâÂÂNew York), running with Governor John Bricker, with 53.21% of the popular vote, against incumbent President Franklin D. Roosevelt (DâÂÂNew York), running with Senator Harry S. Truman, with 46.40% of the popular vote. With a victory margin of 6.8%, Colorado shifted to the right by 4.3% from 1940, when Wendell Willkie carried it by a slim margin of 2.5%.
Despite his comfortable victory, Dewey would go on to lose Colorado in 1948 to Harry S. Truman.
