The Dallas–Fort Worth media market spans one of the fastest-growing metro areas in the country, where rapid suburban population growth and rising college-educated voter shares have compressed margins that once ran 20+ points in statewide races.

Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 79.0 points in 1936 and a Republican high of 39.6 points in 1972. Between 2020 and 2024 the market moved 7.6 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 11.9 points.

A population of 8,700,876, a 44% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $90,070 describe the market. The market's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Houston and Atlanta.
