MyVoterWisdom.com just dropped an eye-opening dataset showing Sussex County's dramatic shift toward Republican dominance in presidential elections! Thanks to https://elections.delaware.gov/elections/election_archive.shtml, we can track this remarkable 20-year transformation.
The numbers are striking: Republican margins have grown from 22,643 votes in 2004 to a whopping 16,189 votes in 2024. What's even more fascinating is the explosion in voter registration - up by 94,837 voters since 2004! This massive growth has transformed Sussex from a relatively small player into a Republican powerhouse that often counterbalances Democratic strength in New Castle County.
For political science students, this dataset perfectly illustrates how demographic shifts and changing voting patterns can reshape a county's political landscape. Sussex's story is a testament to Delaware's diverse political makeup!
