Home to Vicksburg, Warren County sits along the Mississippi River and has shifted notably toward competitive margins compared with most of its Deep South neighbors, driven by a sizable Black voting-age population that regularly shapes close countywide results.
The Democratic margin here reached ninety-three points in 1936. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved four points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was four points. The recent movement, modest against a deep Democratic baseline, mirrors a broader rightward drift across the Black Belt.
The economic context is part of the story: a median household income of $59,401 and a 20% poverty rate. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Duval County and Florence County.
