Zanesville anchors a media market where blue-collar manufacturing heritage and rural Appalachian demographics have shifted the region's presidential margins rightward by double digits over the past two election cycles.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 28.2 points in 1964 and a Republican high of 54.2 points in 1928. Between 2020 and 2024 the market moved 4.6 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 43.9 points.
A population of 86,411, a 91% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $60,780 describe the market. The market's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Ottumwa-Kirksville and St. Joseph.
The media markets 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.
