Blaine County's 583 residents make it among the smallest counties by population in the nation, and its 2024 presidential margin of R+73.2 reflects the lopsided partisanship typical of Nebraska's sparsely settled Sandhills ranching communities.

Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 27.1 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 78.9 points in 2012. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 4.3 points toward the Democratic candidate; the 2024 margin was 72.9 points.

A population of 422, a 100% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $69,583 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Comanche County and Smith County.
