Surry County, tucked along the south bank of the James River, has trended toward razor-thin margins after decades of lopsided Democratic results, reflecting broader rural Virginia realignment in one of the state's least-populous jurisdictions.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 78.8 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 33.1 points in 1972. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 9.0 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 0.7 points.
A population of 6,549, a 54% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $78,041 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Issaquena County and Marlboro County.
