A dense, highly educated suburb directly across the Potomac from Washington, D.C., Arlington has delivered Democratic presidential margins exceeding 50 points in each of the last three cycles, making it one of the most lopsided jurisdictions in Virginia.
The Democratic margin in Arlington County reached its widest at sixty-four points in 2020. The margin in 2024 was fifty-eight points — still decisive.
