{{PresFoot|1888|Republican|1,056|675|225|Missouri}} Camden County has long been a Republican stronghold. The last Democrat to carry the county was [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]] in [[1932 United States presidential election|1932]], the only time a Democrat has won the county since [[Stephen Douglas]] in [[1860 United States presidential election|1860]]. Underlining how Republican the county is, it rejected native son [[Harry Truman]] in 1944 when he was Roosevelt's running mate, and when he headed the ticket himself in 1948. [[Jimmy Carter]] is the only Democrat since Roosevelt to manage even 40 percent of the county's vote. Like most rural areas in western Missouri, voters in Camden County generally adhere to socially and culturally [[Conservatism|conservative]] principles which tend to influence their Republican leanings.
