Oklahoma City's metro has trended reliably Republican in federal races, but rapid expansion in the outer suburbs — particularly in Canadian County — has introduced demographic churn that analysts watch for shifts in down-ballot results.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 38.8 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 50.2 points in 1972. Between 2020 and 2024 the metro moved 1.4 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 18.1 points.
A population of 1,463,267, a 61% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $72,641 describe the metro. The metro's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Tulsa, OK and Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers, AR.

The metros 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.
