Morris County sits in the Piney Woods of northeast Texas, where a shrinking rural population and a decades-long partisan realignment have pushed its presidential margins past 50 points Republican in 2024.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 94.1 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 51.2 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 11.7 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 51.2 points.
A population of 12,076, a 62% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $58,645 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Hickman County and Muskogee County.
