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.

Clark County has trended steadily Republican in recent presidential cycles, posting a 20-point margin in 2024, yet its county seat of Arkadelphia anchors a small college-town demographic that keeps local races occasionally competitive.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 88.2 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 20.6 points in 1972. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 6.4 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 20.5 points.
A population of 21,125, a 67% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $52,034 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Drew County and Mississippi County.
