Talladega and Talladega Counties anchor a mid-sized metro whose white working-class majority has shifted sharply toward Republican presidential margins over the past two decades, even as local races occasionally split the ticket.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 72.7 points in 1936 and a Republican high of 71.0 points in 1964. Between 2020 and 2024 the metro moved 8.4 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 35.0 points.
A population of 91,321, a 62% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $57,729 describe the metro. The metro's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Dublin, GA and Thomasville, GA.
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.
