Franklin County, hugging the Quebec border along Lake Champlain, has moved steadily from reliably Democratic to competitive territory — the 2024 presidential race landed within 3 points, reflecting a rural working-class shift seen across northern New England.
The Democratic margin in Franklin County reached its widest at forty-six points in 1964. The margin in 2024 was three points — still decisive.
Franklin County's loyalty is rooted in its place. Median household income of $81,313, a 92% non-Hispanic-white share, and a population of 50,638 together describe a community whose political habits are deeply settled. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Lake County and Socorro County.
