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.

Luce County in Michigan's Upper Peninsula recorded an R+46.9 margin in 2024, consistent with broader U.P. trends where sparse, rural populations and a shrinking timber-era economy have reshaped the electorate over two decades.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 25.2 points in 1964 and a Republican high of 70.0 points in 1924. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 4.7 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 46.9 points.
A population of 6,271, a 76% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $54,893 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Fremont County and Newaygo County.
