Grenada County sits along the Yalobusha River in the hill country between the Delta and the Tennessee border, with a population that is roughly 40% Black — a demographic mix that has historically kept its presidential margins closer than many neighboring counties.

The shift began with civil rights. 1984 marked the realignment in Grenada County, by a twenty-two points margin. The Republican margin reached its widest at ninety-two points in 1964. The 2024 margin was sixteen points.

The political shift has tracked, in Grenada County, the political shift of the South more broadly. A 50% non-Hispanic-white share, a median household income of $48,804, and a 25% poverty rate describe the demographic context. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Winston County and Attala County.
