Barber County's sparse, ranch-dominated landscape in south-central Kansas produces some of the state's widest presidential margins, with fewer than 5,400 residents spread across 1,134 square miles of rugged red-bed terrain.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 25.4 points in 1912 and a Republican high of 73.6 points in 2020. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 1.4 points toward the Democratic candidate; the 2024 margin was 72.2 points.
A population of 4,069, a 89% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $61,926 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Ness County and Logan County.
The counties whose fingerprint — 2000–2024 trajectory, demographics, ancestry, religion — sits closest to this one, and why.
Twin score (0–100) = weighted cosine between tier-standardized fingerprints: presidential margins 2000–2024 with 12-yr trend and elasticity, ACS income, age, education, population and race, top reported ancestries, and religious adherence — chips name the closest-shared dimensions and the widest gap.
