U.S. House
Each result reflects the U.S. House district as it was drawn for that election; redistricting has redrawn these lines over time, so they can differ from the current 120th-Congress district shown on the map above.
Centered on Springfield and stretching across the Ozark Plateau, Missouri's 7th has delivered Republican presidential margins above 40 points in recent cycles, reflecting a rural, predominantly white electorate with deep evangelical roots.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 15.3 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 44.9 points in 2016. Between 2020 and 2024 the district moved 1.2 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 42.6 points.
A population of 769,365, a 83% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $63,127 describe the district. The district's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Congressional District 1 and Congressional District 2.
The congressional districts 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.
