Place narrative

Bayou La Batre's seafood processing industry drew significant Vietnamese immigration from the 1970s onward, making it one of Alabama's most ethnically distinct small cities and a rare coastal community where Asian-American residents represent a substantial share of the electorate.

Third-party votes in 2012 are allocated from certified county totals by this place's share of each county's two-party vote — that cycle's precinct source records two-party splits.

These Census-place returns are modeled candidate-vote estimates on Census boundaries unless a row explicitly says certified. They are not automatically the official city or town return.

† 2004 sub-county results are estimated: the source reported that cycle at county or municipality level (COVID-era consolidated reporting), so block-level detail is interpolated from adjacent cycles and scaled to certified totals.
