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.

Perry County's R+69.5 margin in 2024 places it among the most one-sided rural counties in the state. With fewer than 8,000 residents and an economy long tied to timber and small-scale agriculture, its electorate moves in near-unanimous fashion in federal contests.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 61.7 points in 1936 and a Republican high of 69.5 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 6.4 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 69.5 points.
A population of 8,697, a 89% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $55,972 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Stewart County and Clay County.
