Baldwin County, home to Georgia's state prison system and Georgia College & State University, shifted from a double-digit Democratic margin in 2020 to R+2.2 in 2024 — one of the state's more striking realignment stories in a midsize county.
The Democratic margin in Baldwin County has rarely exceeded eighty-nine points in modern history; the Republican margin has rarely exceeded fifty-four points. 2024 delivered the county to the Republican candidate by two points.
Baldwin County's demographics resemble the country more than they resemble most counties. A 52% non-Hispanic-white share, a 22% poverty rate, and a median household income of $54,403 — all within the broad national range. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Sumter County and Caddo Parish.
