Georgetown's rapid in-migration of retirees and tech-sector workers has diversified an electorate that once tilted heavily Republican, compressing countywide margins noticeably over the past three election cycles.
Across the recorded series it reached a Republican high of 38.6 points in 2004. Between 2020 and 2024 the city moved 2.5 points toward the Democratic candidate; the 2024 margin was 15.6 points.
A population of 85,999, a 67% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $95,062 describe the city. The city's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Santee and Lincoln.
