ALABAMA – The numbers have been crunched, and Alabama’s Fourth Congressional District supported then-President Donald J. Trump in the 2020 election more than any other district in the United States.
Daily Kos, a left leaning political website, has been conducting a calculation of the presidential election results broken down by each of the nation’s 435 congressional districts.
On Tuesday, the results were released for AL-04, showing that the rural Yellowhammer State district “gave Donald Trump both his highest percentage of the vote and widest margin of victory in the nation” in November.
Trump defeated now-President Joe Biden by an 81.23%-17.81% margin.
This comes after Trump also trounced Hillary Clinton in 2016, that time by an 80%-17% rout.
“[T]he result is no surprise: In 2016, Trump also earned his biggest share of the vote nationwide in the 4th, though his net margin was just a touch higher in Texas’ 13th,” Daily Kos added.
AL-04 is represented by the dean of Alabama’s House delegation, Congressman Robert Aderholt (R-Haleyville). He has served the district in Congress since first being elected in 1996.
His home of Winston County, as it did in 2016, saw more than 90% of its vote share go to Trump in November, as did Blount County with an even higher 91.27%. Additionally, Marion County with 88.55%, Cherokee County with 88.47% and Cullman County with 88.28% came in especially supportive of Trump in the Fourth Congressional District.
Daily Kos also revealed the 2020 presidential results in each of Alabama’s six other congressional districts on Tuesday.
