Skagit County's mix of agricultural flatlands, coastal fishing communities, and small cities like Mount Vernon has kept it modestly left of center, though its D+8.8 margin in 2024 reflects a competitive blend of rural and suburban voters.

The county's recent history is a story of close margins. The Democratic margin reached thirty points in 1932; the Republican margin reached fifty points in 1904. Most other elections have been decided by single-digit points.

Skagit County's demographics — a population of 131,328, a 75% non-Hispanic-white share, a median household income of $89,263 — situate the county close to national averages on several dimensions. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Clackamas County and Sandoval County.
