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.

White County, in the rural southeastern corner of Illinois, delivered a nearly 60-point Republican margin in 2024—one of the state's widest—reflecting the broader shift of small, majority-white rural counties away from competitive two-party voting over the past decade.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 27.8 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 59.4 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 1.9 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 59.4 points.
A population of 13,619, a 95% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $54,813 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Clark County and Saline County.
