Wallace County sits in the far western corner of Kansas, where sparse settlement and an agriculture-driven economy produce some of the most lopsided presidential margins in the state — 84.8 points in 2024.
The Republican margin in Wallace County reached its widest at eighty-eight points in 2020. The margin in 2024 was eighty-five points, in line with the county's deep historical pattern.
Wallace County's loyalty is rooted in its place. Median household income of $63,207, a 90% non-Hispanic-white share, and a population of 1,417 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 Scott County and Glasscock County.
