Foard County's roughly 1,600 residents make it among the smallest in Texas by population, and its presidential margins have grown steadily more lopsided over two decades as rural depopulation has concentrated a predominantly older, agricultural electorate.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 87.4 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 65.3 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 2.5 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 65.3 points.
A population of 991, a 83% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $61,563 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Trinity County and Carlisle County.
