Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 40.1 points in 1936 and a Republican high of 56.5 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 1.8 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 56.5 points.
A population of 1,938, a 85% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $60,161 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Wells County and Burke County.
