With fewer than 600 residents spread across rugged 13,000-foot terrain, San Juan County delivered a 32-point Democratic margin in 2024 — one of the widest in the state despite, or perhaps because of, its extreme isolation and tight-knit mountain-town character.
The Democratic margin in San Juan County reached its widest at ninety-eight points in 1896. The margin in 2024 was thirty-two points — still decisive.
San Juan County's loyalty is rooted in its place. Median household income of $77,824, a 86% non-Hispanic-white share, and a population of 724 together describe a community whose political habits are deeply settled. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Skagway Municipality and Teton County.
