Migration is one input to a place’s political change, not its cause — a shift can also come from residents changing their minds, generational turnover, or turnout. These figures describe the places people moved between; they do not measure how any mover voted.

Spanning the rugged islands of southeastern Alaska, this sparsely populated census area blends Indigenous Tlingit and Haida communities with rural timber-economy towns, producing a modest Republican lean that has narrowed in recent cycles.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 42.7 points in 1964 and a Republican high of 34.7 points in 2000. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 2.9 points toward the Democratic candidate; the 2024 margin was 4.2 points.
A population of 5,715, a 44% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $61,156 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Hoonah-Angoon Census Area and Lake and Peninsula Borough.
