With fewer than a thousand residents spread across high-desert canyon country, Daggett's presidential margins routinely rank among the most lopsided in the state, reflecting a sparse, rural electorate where a few dozen votes can shift the percentage dramatically.
The Democratic margin in Daggett County peaked at twenty-five points in 1940. By 1968 the county had flipped, voting Republican for the first time in many years. The 2024 margin was sixty-two points, the most Republican-leaning result in the county's modern history.
The economic context is the key. Daggett County's median household income of $66,000 sits well below state and national norms, and 9% of residents live below the federal poverty line. The shift here is part of a broader realignment of working-class places across the country. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Oneida County and Washakie County.
