Despite anchoring the state's largest city, Oklahoma's 5th district returned a 47.9-point Republican presidential margin in 2024, reflecting how thoroughly the urban-suburban realignment that flipped similar districts elsewhere has bypassed this part of the Deep South Plains.
Across the recorded series it reached a Republican high of 28.5 points in 2012. Between 2020 and 2024 the district moved 1.2 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 19.7 points.
A population of 791,833, a 64% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $74,730 describe the district. The district's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Congressional District 1 and Congressional District 4.
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.
