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.

Washington County, a historically Black-majority rural county in central Georgia, swung to within two points in 2024 — a margin that reflects its unusual demographic mix of a large African American population against a broader rural conservative trend.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 98.9 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 51.6 points in 1972. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 2.6 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 1.9 points.
A population of 19,849, a 42% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $46,023 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Sumter County and Randolph County.
