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.

Bowie County's presidential margins have exceeded R+40 in each of the last three cycles, driven by a predominantly rural, working-class electorate centered on Texarkana's Texas side. Its cross-state border city adds an unusual twin-metro dynamic rare in rural East Texas.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 82.6 points in 1936 and a Republican high of 48.7 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 5.9 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 48.7 points.
A population of 92,115, a 61% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $59,803 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Morgan County and Cass County.
