Arthur County's 444 residents make it among the smallest counties by population in the United States, and its 2024 presidential margin of R+87.6 reflects the lopsided partisanship typical of Nebraska's remote Sandhills ranching communities.

Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 32.1 points in 1916 and a Republican high of 87.3 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 3.4 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 87.3 points.

A population of 484, a 93% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $76,250 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Billings County and Stafford County.
