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.

Despite hosting the state capital and its professional class, Burleigh County delivered a 42-point Republican margin in 2024, reflecting how thoroughly small-city prairie counties have shifted toward one-party dominance over the past two decades.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 39.8 points in 1936 and a Republican high of 68.6 points in 1892. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 2.6 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 42.8 points.
A population of 100,600, a 85% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $86,851 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Morton County and Ward County.
