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.

Osborne County, anchored by its small agricultural seat, recorded an R+68.5 margin in 2024—among the widest in a state already dominated by rural Republican strongholds. Its shrinking population reflects broader depopulation trends across the High Plains.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 9.3 points in 1916 and a Republican high of 69.3 points in 2020. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 0.8 points toward the Democratic candidate; the 2024 margin was 68.5 points.
A population of 3,452, a 92% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $63,011 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Wallace County and Smith 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.
