Page County, anchored by the small city of Clarinda, sits in Iowa's southwestern corner and has delivered Republican presidential margins exceeding 40 points in recent cycles, reflecting the deep rural conservative shift that has reshaped the state's electoral map.

The Republican margin in Page County reached its widest at fifty-five points in 1920. The margin in 2024 was forty-two points, in line with the county's deep historical pattern.

Page County's loyalty is rooted in its place. Median household income of $57,953, a 92% non-Hispanic-white share, and a population of 15,131 together describe a community whose political habits are deeply settled.
