Andrew County strongly favored [[Donald Trump]] in both [[2016 United States presidential election|2016]] and [[2020 United States presidential election|2020]]. [[Bill Clinton]] was the last Democratic presidential nominee to carry Andrew County in [[1992 United States presidential election|1992]] with a plurality of the vote, and a Democrat hasn't won majority support from the county's voters in a presidential election since [[Lyndon Johnson]] in [[1964 United States presidential election|1964]]. Like most rural areas throughout northwest Missouri, voters in Andrew County generally adhere to socially and culturally [[Conservatism|conservative]] principles which tend to influence their Republican leanings. Despite Andrew County's longstanding tradition of supporting socially conservative platforms, voters in the county have a penchant for advancing [[Populism|populist]] causes. In 2018, Missourians voted on a proposition (Proposition A) concerning [[Right to Work|right to work]], the outcome of which ultimately reversed the right to work legislation passed in the state the previous year. 67.18% of Andrew County voters cast their ballots to overturn the law. ===Missouri presidential preference primaries=== ====2020==== The 2020 presidential primaries for both the Democratic and Republican parties were held in Missouri on March 10. On the Democratic side, former [[Vice President of the United States|Vice President]] [[Joe Biden]] (D-[[Delaware]]) both won statewide and carried Andrew County by a wide margin. Biden went on to defeat [[President of the United States|President]] [[Donald Trump]] in the general election. {{Election box begin | title=Missouri Democratic Presidential Primary β Andrew County (2020)}} {{Election box candidate with party link| |party = Democratic Party (United States) |candidate = '''Joe Biden''' |votes = '''818''' |percentage = '''62.35''' |change = }} {{Election box candidate with party link| |party = Democratic Party (United States) |candidate = Bernie Sanders |votes = 415 |percentage = 31.63 |change = }} {{Election box candidate with party link| |party = Democratic Party (United States) |candidate = Tulsi Gabbard |votes = 18 |percentage = 1.37 |change = }} {{Election box candidate with party link| |party = Democratic Party (United States) |candidate = Others/Uncommitted |votes = 61 |percentage = 4.65 |change = }} {{Election box end}} Incumbent [[President of the United States|President]] [[Donald Trump]] (R-[[Florida]]) faced a primary challenge from former [[Governor of Massachusetts|Massachusetts Governor]] [[Bill Weld]], but won both Andrew County and statewide by large margins. {{Election box begin | title=Missouri Republican Presidential Primary β Andrew County (2020)}} {{Election box candidate with party link| |party = Republican Party (United States) |candidate = '''Donald Trump''' |votes = '''1,220''' |percentage = '''97.52''' |change = }} {{Election box candidate with party link| |party = Republican Party (United States) |candidate = Bill Weld |votes = 3 |percentage = 0.24 |change = }} {{Election box candidate with party link| |party = Republican Party (United States) |candidate = Others/Uncommitted |votes = 28 |percentage = 2.24 |change = }} {{Election box end}}
