Scroll through Louisiana, part by part. The parts follow the federal government’s metropolitan areas: each big metro’s core counties, its suburbs and outer suburbs, the smaller metro areas, then the small towns and countryside.

What the count shows

Added together, the 10 counties compared moved 21.1 points toward the Republicans from the 2024 presidential vote.

The counties compared cast 44% as many votes as in 2024, from 76% in Plaquemines Parish to 10% in Orleans Parish. Where turnout ran higher, the county moved more toward the Democrats (r = 0.79).

St. Bernard Parish moved most: R+29.3 for president in 2024, R+10.9 this year

The 8 counties with the largest moves from the 2024 presidential vote, among those with 2,000 or more votes for president in 2024 and a quarter of that counted, and at least half a percent of the state's 2024 vote. Each line runs from the 2024 margin to this year’s.
