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.

Cheboygan sits at the tip of Michigan's Lower Peninsula, where a largely rural, timber-era economy gave way to seasonal tourism — a shift that has coincided with a steady rightward drift in presidential voting over the past two decades.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 26.4 points in 1964 and a Republican high of 43.4 points in 1904. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 1.2 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 31.1 points.
A population of 25,865, a 89% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $62,875 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Crawford County and Roscommon County.
