Chilton County, a rural stretch of central Alabama anchored by Clanton, recorded a 72-point Republican presidential margin in 2024—among the widest gaps in a state already dominated by one-party presidential voting.
The Republican margin in Chilton County reached its widest at seventy-six points in 1964. The margin in 2024 was seventy-two points, in line with the county's deep historical pattern.
Chilton County's loyalty is rooted in its place. Median household income of $65,603, a 81% non-Hispanic-white share, and a population of 45,992 together describe a community whose political habits are deeply settled. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Baker County and Holmes County.
