The 2024 Kansas Democratic presidential primary took place on March 19, 2024, as part of the Democratic Party primaries for the 2024 presidential election, alongside three other states. 33 delegates to the Democratic National Convention were allocated to presidential candidates in a closed primary, with 6 additional unpledged delegates.[1] The contest was the first state-run presidential primary in the history of Kansas and was held on the same day as the primaries of Arizona, Illinois, and Ohio.
President Joe Biden won all delegates in a landslide, but over 10% of the voters opted to choose the option None of the names shown, which also won three small counties Ness, Rawlins, and Sheridan counties. Kansas City activist groups, including the Palestinian-led group Al-Hadaf KC and Free Palestine KC, encouraged to choose 'None of the names shown' as a protest vote against the Biden administration’s handling of the war between Israel and Hamas.[2][3] In Greeley County, there was a tie between Joe Biden, None of the names shown, and Marianne Williamson.[4][5]

The following candidates achieved ballot access.[6]
- Joe Biden
- Jason Palmer
- Dean Phillips (withdrawn)
- Marianne Williamson
The option for "None of the names" or "None of the names shown", similar to the often used "uncommitted" in many states, was also put on the ballot due to state law.
