Marshall County, anchored by the city of Plymouth, delivered a 43-point Republican margin in 2024 — a result consistent with the heavily rural, small-manufacturing character that has defined its voting patterns for over a decade.

The Republican margin in Marshall County reached its widest at forty-six points in 1972. The margin in 2024 was forty-three points, in line with the county's deep historical pattern.

Marshall County's loyalty is rooted in its place. Median household income of $71,808, a 88% non-Hispanic-white share, and a population of 46,284 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 Clinton County and Tipton County.
