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.

Piscataquis covers more than 4,300 square miles yet holds fewer than 17,500 residents, making it one of the least dense counties east of the Mississippi. That rural isolation tracks closely with its consistent and widening Republican margins at the presidential level.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 31.8 points in 1964 and a Republican high of 57.6 points in 1924. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 2.9 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 29.2 points.
A population of 17,263, a 93% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $61,345 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Somerset County and Washington County.
