==Politics== Owing to its [[Yankee]] influence, Lawrence County has been reliably Republican for a full century. It was the only South Dakota county to remain loyal to [[Herbert Hoover]] in his landslide 1932 loss.<ref>Phillips, Kevin P.; ''The Emerging Republican Majority'', p. 442 {{ISBN|1400852293}}</ref> In fact, Lawrence County was the second-westernmost county, behind only Utah's [[Kane County, Utah|Kane County]], to never vote for [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]]. The only Democratic presidential candidates to carry Lawrence County have been [[Woodrow Wilson]] in 1912 and 1916, and [[William Jennings Bryan]] in 1896. Lawrence County has also been one of the most consistent strongholds for the [[Libertarian Party (United States)|Libertarian Party]], giving their 2016 nominee, [[Gary Johnson]], one of the largest vote share out of any county outside his home state of [[New Mexico]], with 7.9%. In 2020, Libertarian Party nominee [[Jo Jorgensen]] received 3.9% of the popular vote, her second best performance in any county during the election cycle. {{PresHead|place=Lawrence County, South Dakota|source=<ref>{{cite web|url=http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS|title=Atlas of US Presidential Elections|first=David|last=Leip|website=uselectionatlas.org|access-date=April 13, 2018}}</ref>}} <!-- PresRow should be {{PresRow|Year|Winning party|GOP vote #|Dem vote #|3rd party vote #|State}} --> {{PresRow|2024|Republican|9,904|5,074|431|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|2020|Republican|8,753|4,537|538|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|2016|Republican|7,411|3,356|1,075|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|2012|Republican|7,025|3,973|361|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|2008|Republican|6,787|4,932|336|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|2004|Republican|7,489|3,857|273|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|2000|Republican|6,327|2,797|282|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1996|Republican|4,430|3,568|1,444|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1992|Republican|3,770|3,157|2,732|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1988|Republican|5,570|3,705|104|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1984|Republican|5,949|2,565|55|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1980|Republican|5,306|2,259|838|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1976|Republican|4,206|3,102|141|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1972|Republican|4,795|2,533|24|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1968|Republican|4,185|2,425|338|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1964|Republican|3,743|3,468|0|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1960|Republican|5,083|2,612|0|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1956|Republican|4,654|1,871|0|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1952|Republican|5,559|1,701|0|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1948|Republican|3,778|2,209|58|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1944|Republican|3,528|1,866|0|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1940|Republican|5,288|3,515|0|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1936|Republican|4,974|3,809|69|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1932|Republican|3,708|3,106|54|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1928|Republican|4,141|1,785|21|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1924|Republican|3,255|649|676|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1920|Republican|2,986|1,201|172|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1916|Democratic|2,074|2,157|134|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1912|Democratic|0|2,412|2,059|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1908|Republican|2,735|1,564|1,078|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1904|Republican|4,247|1,347|887|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1900|Republican|3,435|2,619|84|South Dakota}} {{PresRow|1896|Democratic|2,210|2,905|35|South Dakota}} {{PresFoot|1892|Republican|2,140|546|1,495|South Dakota}}
