Grant County's roughly 6,300 residents are spread across glacially flattened farmland in west-central Minnesota, producing consistently lopsided Republican margins in statewide and federal races that have widened over the past decade.
The Republican margin in Grant County reached its widest at eighty points in 1904. The margin in 2024 was thirty points, in line with the county's deep historical pattern.
Grant County's loyalty is rooted in its place. Median household income of $73,917, a 94% non-Hispanic-white share, and a population of 6,127 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 Rusk County and Barron County.
