Comanche County, anchored by the small city of Comanche in the Cross Timbers region, recorded a 74-point Republican presidential margin in 2024 — a figure consistent with the dramatic rural realignment that has reshaped small-town Texas over the past decade.
The unraveling was not abrupt. The Democratic margin in Comanche County peaked at eighty-eight points in 1932; it narrowed steadily over the late twentieth century. The 2000 election delivered the county to the Republican party for the first time in many years, by a margin of thirty-four points. By 2024, the margin had widened further.
The economic and demographic context is severe. Comanche County's median household income of $59,635 is among the lowest of any county in the United States; 16% of residents live below the federal poverty line. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Briscoe County and Menard County.
