The Glendive media market covers the sparsely populated Yellowstone River corridor in eastern Montana, where oil and agriculture shape both the local economy and the reliably lopsided margins that characterize statewide rural returns.

Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 28.7 points in 1936 and a Republican high of 59.3 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the market moved 0.5 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 59.3 points.

A population of 10,077, a 90% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $68,843 describe the market. The market's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Lima and Joplin-Pittsburg.

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. Re-weight the groups in the twins explorer.
