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.

Red Lake County's roughly 4,300 residents make it one of Minnesota's least populous counties, yet it delivers consistent double-digit Republican presidential margins — a pattern tied to its sparse, agriculturally rooted demographic profile in the far northwest of the state.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 65.9 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 49.0 points in 1904. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 2.3 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 37.0 points.
A population of 3,915, a 91% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $77,188 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Murray County and Grant 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.
