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.

Hugging the Northern Neck peninsula between the Potomac and Rappahannock rivers, Westmoreland has shifted steadily toward Republican margins over the past two decades as its small-town, agricultural character has grown more politically homogeneous.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 59.8 points in 1912 and a Republican high of 41.3 points in 1972. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 6.0 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 14.3 points.
A population of 18,826, a 62% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $63,398 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Warren County and Charles City County.
