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.

Chesapeake shifted from reliably Republican margins to a narrow Democratic lean in 2024, reflecting the broader realignment of Hampton Roads suburbs as military families and college-educated voters remake its electorate.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 71.0 points in 1940 and a Republican high of 69.1 points in 1928. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 2.7 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 3.8 points.
A population of 252,583, a 54% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $95,373 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Virginia Beach city and Mecklenburg County.
