Cumberland's blend of agricultural communities, a majority-minority population, and persistent economic hardship makes it one of New Jersey's genuine swing counties — its R+3.8 margin in 2024 reversed a Democratic lean held through much of the prior decade.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 45.4 points in 1964 and a Republican high of 56.1 points in 1928. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 9.9 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 3.8 points.
A population of 153,305, a 41% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $67,436 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Atlantic County and Clinton County.
