Antrim County, tucked among Michigan's northern Lower Peninsula lakes, delivered an R+23.8 margin in 2024—consistent with the rural realignment reshaping small, predominantly white resort communities across the region.

The Republican margin in Antrim County reached its widest at seventy points in 1928. The margin in 2024 was twenty-four points, in line with the county's deep historical pattern.

Antrim County's loyalty is rooted in its place. Median household income of $72,054, a 93% non-Hispanic-white share, and a population of 24,127 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 Tioga County and Charlevoix County.
