The county has been solidly Republican in Presidential elections since [[John C. Frémont]]'s win against [[James Buchanan]] in [[1856 United States presidential election|1856]]. The only exception was [[William Howard Taft]]'s loss to [[Theodore Roosevelt]] of the [[Progressive Party (United States, 1912)|Bull Moose (Progressive) Party]] &ndash; which had splintered from the Republican Party &ndash; in [[1912 United States presidential election|1912]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://staffweb.wilkes.edu/harold.cox/pres/indexpres.html|title=Presidential Elections|website=staffweb.wilkes.edu|access-date=March 23, 2018}}</ref> The county has also voted for Republican Senators,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/comparemaps.php?year=2012&fips=42&f=1&off=3&elect=0&class=1|title=David Leip's Atlas|website=uselectionatlas.org|access-date=March 23, 2018}}</ref> State Treasurers,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/comparemaps.php?year=2012&fips=42&f=1&off=8&elect=0|title=David Leip's Atlas|website=uselectionatlas.org|access-date=March 23, 2018}}</ref> and State Auditors<ref>{{cite web|url=http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/comparemaps.php?year=2008&fips=42&f=1&off=11&elect=0|title=David Leip's Atlas|website=uselectionatlas.org|access-date=March 23, 2018}}</ref> for decades.
