Clark County sits directly across the Columbia River from Portland, Oregon, drawing residents who work in the city but live in a no-income-tax state. That cross-border dynamic has produced a suburban electorate that has trended Democratic over the past decade while remaining genuinely contested.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 42.3 points in 1936 and a Republican high of 56.7 points in 1904. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 1.9 points toward the Democratic candidate; the 2024 margin was 6.9 points.
A population of 516,959, a 73% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $97,536 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Washington County and Sandoval County.
