Goshen County, anchored by the small city of Torrington, delivers some of the widest Republican presidential margins in a state already dominated by right-leaning voters, reflecting its sparse, agriculturally rooted population along the Nebraska border.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 16.8 points in 1916 and a Republican high of 60.5 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 1.6 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 60.5 points.
A population of 12,605, a 85% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $58,929 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Lake County and Washington County.
The counties whose fingerprint — 2000–2024 trajectory, demographics, ancestry, religion — sits closest to this one, and why.
Twin score (0–100) = weighted cosine between tier-standardized fingerprints: presidential margins 2000–2024 with 12-yr trend and elasticity, ACS income, age, education, population and race, top reported ancestries, and religious adherence — chips name the closest-shared dimensions and the widest gap.
