Hendricks County has seen some of Indiana's sharpest population growth as households relocate from Marion County, yet that demographic churn has done little to soften its consistent 20-point Republican presidential margins.

The Republican margin in Hendricks County reached its widest at sixty points in 1972. The margin in 2024 was twenty-one points, in line with the county's deep historical pattern.

Hendricks County's loyalty is rooted in its place. Median household income of $101,144, a 78% non-Hispanic-white share, and a population of 183,344 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 Ottawa County and Boone County.
