Broome County, anchored by Binghamton, has shifted sharply from its mid-century Democratic base as deindustrialization reshaped its electorate — the 2024 presidential margin of D+0.4 reflects a county genuinely in play.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 29.6 points in 1964 and a Republican high of 48.5 points in 1956. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 3.0 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 0.4 points.
A population of 197,378, a 79% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $62,616 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Kent County and Russell County.
