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.

Carroll County's rural Delta-edge geography and small, stable population have produced some of the widest partisan gaps in the state, with the 2024 presidential result landing at R+44.3 in a county of fewer than 11,000 residents.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 98.4 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 90.8 points in 1964. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 5.8 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 44.3 points.
A population of 9,686, a 63% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $59,327 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Lincoln County and Miller County.
