Maverick County, anchored by Eagle Pass on the Rio Grande, is over 95% Hispanic and long voted heavily Democratic — yet its 2024 presidential margin of R+18.5 marks a dramatic rightward movement that analysts are still working to explain.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 67.8 points in 1940 and a Republican high of 26.7 points in 1928. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 27.9 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 18.5 points.
A population of 58,082, a 3% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $49,568 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Willacy County and Hidalgo County.
