Migration is one input to a place’s political change, not its cause — a shift can also come from residents changing their minds, generational turnover, or turnout. These figures describe the places people moved between; they do not measure how any mover voted.

This small southeast Georgia county of roughly 10,000 delivered an R+73.2 margin in 2024, placing it among the state's most one-sided jurisdictions and reflecting the heavily Republican shift across rural wiregrass Georgia.

Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 95.5 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 80.4 points in 1972. The 2024 margin was 73.2 points.

A population of 11,109, a 72% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $44,694 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Berrien County and Lafayette County.
