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.

Moore County, home to the Jack Daniel's distillery in Lynchburg, consistently records some of the widest Republican margins in the state despite — or perhaps because of — its overwhelmingly rural, small-town character.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 86.1 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 68.9 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 3.5 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 68.9 points.
A population of 6,674, a 92% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $66,469 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Sequatchie County and Fentress County.
