Bibb County, a rural stretch of central Alabama with a population under 21,000, recorded an R+64.3 margin in 2024 — placing it among the state's most consistently one-sided presidential jurisdictions over the past two decades.
The unraveling was not abrupt. The Democratic margin in Bibb County peaked at eighty-two points in 1932; it narrowed steadily over the late twentieth century. The 1984 election delivered the county to the Republican party for the first time in many years, by a margin of twenty-three points. By 2024, the margin had widened further.
The economic and demographic context is severe. Bibb County's median household income of $52,541 is among the lowest of any county in the United States; 23% of residents live below the federal poverty line. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Grady County and Lamar County.
