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.

Schuyler County's R+46.8 margin in 2024 reflects a broader west-central Illinois trend where small agricultural communities have shifted decisively away from statewide Democratic patterns, even as Illinois's electoral votes remain uncompetitive.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 28.8 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 46.8 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 3.3 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 46.8 points.
A population of 6,787, a 90% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $65,948 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Stark County and Blackford County.
