U.S. House
On a multi-state Place, each row sums votes cast in the separate U.S. House races held inside the Place that year. It is a geographic vote total, not one contest or a seat tally.
Some U.S. House rows cover a contest held in only part of this Place — the votes are real, but the total is not place-wide because the rest of the Place had no such race that year.
Registered voters
By party of registration, over time
Jackson, WY-ID registers Republican but votes Democratic — a 48-point gap between how voters register and how they vote, the signature of ancestral registration that trails realignment.
† Some years predate full county coverage; a flagged year sums only the counties reporting it.

The Jackson metro straddles Wyoming and Idaho along the Teton Range, blending a wealthy, amenity-driven Wyoming county that leans Democratic with more rural Idaho territory that tilts reliably Republican — producing a split political profile unusual for a mountain-West resort area.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 28.4 points in 2020 and a Republican high of 45.0 points in 1952. Between 2020 and 2024 the metro moved 3.0 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 25.4 points.
A population of 35,821, a 78% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $115,720 describe the metro. The metro's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Steamboat Springs, CO and Los Alamos, NM.
The metros whose fingerprint — 2000–2024 trajectory, demographics, ancestry, religion — sits closest to this one, and why.
Twin score (0–100) = weighted cosine between tier-standardized fingerprints: presidential margins 2000–2024 with 12-yr trend and elasticity, ACS income, age, education, population and race, top reported ancestries, and religious adherence — chips name the closest-shared dimensions and the widest gap.
