==Politics== In the first five elections after its founding, Pennington County had mixed results in presidential elections, voting for four different parties at least once in that span. From 1932 to 1996, the county voted Democratic, typically by moderately healthy margins, in every election save for three nationwide Republican landslides, [[Richard Nixon]] in 1972 and [[Ronald Reagan]] in both 1980 and 1984. Beginning in 2000, Pennington County has favored Republicans in six of the seven elections, with the exception being [[Barack Obama]] winning the county in 2008 by a fairly small margin of about 2%. {{PresHead|place=Pennington County, Minnesota|whig=no|source1=<ref>{{Cite web |last=Leip |first=David |title=Atlas of US Presidential Elections |url=http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS |access-date=October 10, 2018 |website=uselectionatlas.org}}</ref>}} <!-- PresRow should be {{PresRow|Year|Winning party|GOP/Whig vote #|Dem vote #|3rd party vote #|State}} --> {{PresRow|2024|Republican|4,756|2,439|186|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|2020|Republican|4,532|2,568|177|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|2016|Republican|4,000|2,147|568|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|2012|Republican|3,305|3,024|188|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|2008|Democratic|3,248|3,394|180|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|2004|Republican|3,767|3,117|133|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|2000|Republican|3,380|2,458|482|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1996|Democratic|2,129|2,814|972|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1992|Democratic|2,155|2,578|1,626|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1988|Democratic|2,920|3,105|46|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1984|Republican|3,536|2,913|40|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1980|Republican|3,715|3,101|600|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1976|Democratic|3,023|3,787|138|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1972|Republican|3,548|2,892|160|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1968|Democratic|2,247|2,998|220|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1964|Democratic|1,630|3,894|10|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1960|Democratic|2,537|3,204|18|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1956|Democratic|2,408|2,947|4|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1952|Democratic|2,726|2,802|87|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1948|Democratic|1,759|3,402|447|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1944|Democratic|1,525|3,330|50|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1940|Democratic|1,857|3,886|98|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1936|Democratic|1,258|3,736|161|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1932|Democratic|1,212|2,743|355|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1928|Republican|2,506|1,198|134|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1924|Progressive|1,126|146|2,337|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1920|Republican|2,320|768|734|Minnesota}} {{PresRow|1916|Democratic|868|1,004|273|Minnesota}} {{PresFoot|1912|Progressive|244|423|1,205|Minnesota}}
