Montgomery County is a suburb of [[Philadelphia]], the nation's sixth most populous city. Many Montco residents work in the city, but the county is also a major employment center with large business parks in [[Blue Bell, Pennsylvania|Blue Bell]], [[Lansdale, Pennsylvania|Lansdale]], [[Fort Washington, Pennsylvania|Fort Washington]], [[Horsham, Pennsylvania|Horsham]], and [[King of Prussia, Pennsylvania|King of Prussia]] attracting thousands of workers from all over the region. The strong job base and taxes generated by those jobs have resulted in Montgomery County receiving the highest credit rating of 'AAA' from [[Standard & Poor's]], one of fewer than 30 counties in the United States with such a rating.<ref>"Montgomery County," [http://www.rydal-meadowbrook.org/county Rydal-Meadowbrook Civic Association] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131013174056/http://www.rydal-meadowbrook.org/county|date=October 13, 2013}}</ref> In 2012, [[Moody's Investors Service|Moody's]] downgraded the [[General obligation bond|general obligation]] rating to Aa1,<ref>{{Cite news |date=July 19, 2012 |title=Moody's downgrades Montgomery County's (PA) general obligation rating to Aa1 from Aaa; outlook is stable |work=Moodys.com |url=https://www.moodys.com/research/Moodys-downgrades-Montgomery-Countys-PA-general-obligation-rating-to-Aa1--PR_251258 |access-date=May 28, 2018}}</ref> and in 2018 the rating was revised back to Aaa.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Montgomery County, PA |url=https://www.montcopa.org/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=2742 |access-date=May 28, 2018 |website=Montgomery County, PA |language=en |archive-date=May 28, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180528133919/https://www.montcopa.org/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=2742 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

==Politics==
As of November 4, 2024, there are 632,719 registered voters in Montgomery County.<ref>[https://www.pa.gov/content/dam/copapwp-pagov/en/dos/resources/voting-and-elections/voting-and-election-statistics/currentvotestats.xls Pennsylvania Department of State, Voting and Election Statistics], accessed November 4, 2024</ref>

* [[Democratic Party (United States)|Democratic]]: 311,200 (49.18%)
* [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican]]: 214,771 (33.94%)
* [[Independent (United States)|Independent]]: 77,082 (12.18%)
* [[Third party (United States)|Minor parties]]: 29,666 (4.69%)

Montgomery County historically was a stronghold for the Republican Party. The county was the only one carried by [[Barbara Hafer]] in the [[Pennsylvania gubernatorial election, 1990|1990 gubernatorial election]] over the incumbent governor, [[Robert P. Casey|Bob Casey]]. However, the Democratic Party has made substantial gains in the county over the last quarter-century and gained the registration edge early in 2008. 

Like neighboring [[Bucks County, Pennsylvania|Bucks County]], the county voted Democratic during the [[American Civil War|Civil War]] era, voting Democratic between 1856 and 1876, except in 1860 and 1872. Like most of Philadelphia's suburbs, the brand of Republicanism practiced in Montgomery County for much of the 20th century was moderate. As the national parties have polarized, the county's voters have increasingly supported Democrats at the national level. The county voted for the Republican presidential nominee in all but two elections from 1880 to 1988, that being in 1892 and 1964. However, Montgomery County residents have voted for the Democratic presidential nominee since 1992, with the margins progressively increasing between every election, except in 2012. In the 2020 election, [[Joe Biden]] became the first Democrat to obtain over 60% of the county's vote.

Despite [[Donald Trump]]'s victory in the state of Pennsylvania in the [[2016 United States presidential election|2016 presidential election]], Montgomery County was one of the few counties in Pennsylvania that swung in the Democratic presidential candidates' direction with [[Hillary Clinton]] winning Montgomery County with 58.87% of the vote, an improvement from [[Barack Obama]]'s 56.6% vote share in 2012. In the 2016 U.S. Senate and Pennsylvania Attorney General elections, Montgomery County voted for [[Katie McGinty]] and [[Josh Shapiro]], both Democrats.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://electionresults.montcopa.org/#/county?cview=sw&t=95|title=Montgomery County Election Results|website=electionresults.montcopa.org|access-date=November 25, 2016|archive-date=November 7, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161107150311/https://electionresults.montcopa.org/#/county?cview=sw&t=95|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Most county-level offices were held by Republicans until after the 2007 election, when Democrats picked up control of five row offices. Democrats have also won several elections in the [[Pennsylvania General Assembly]] in recent years, including two GOP-leaning [[Pennsylvania House of Representatives|State House]] districts in 2004, the [[Pennsylvania's 148th Representative District|148th]] with [[Michael F. Gerber|Mike Gerber]] and the [[Pennsylvania's 153rd Representative District|153rd]] with current [[Governor of Pennsylvania|Governor]] [[Josh Shapiro]]. Today, although the county is very Democratic at the national level, at the state and local level, it is not specifically partisan.

In the [[2004 United States Senate election in Pennsylvania|2004 United States Senate]] election, Republican [[Arlen Specter]] won the county over Montco resident [[Joe Hoeffel]], but Democrat [[Bob Casey, Jr.]] out-polled [[Rick Santorum]] in the 2006 Senate election. In 2006, Democrat Rick Taylor unseated incumbent Republican Eugene McGill in the [[Pennsylvania's 151st Representative District|151st]], although Taylor lost in 2010 to Republican Todd Stephens and, in 2008, Democrat Matthew Bradford unseated incumbent Republican Jay Moyer in the [[Pennsylvania's 70th Representative District|70th]]. Six of the county's 12 state house seats and four of the county's eight senate seats are now held by Democrats. All four statewide Democratic candidates carried Montgomery in 2008, with Barack Obama receiving 60% of the county's vote. Barack Obama won Montgomery County in 2008 and 2012.

====Same-sex marriage====
On July 24, 2013, Montgomery County Register of Wills [[D. Bruce Hanes]], a [[United States Democratic Party|Democrat]], announced he would begin issuing [[marriage license]]s to [[Same-sex marriage in the United States|same-sex couples]], flouting Pennsylvania law banning such unions. Hanes called the commonwealth's ban "arbitrary and suspect", saying he believes it violates the [[Pennsylvania Constitution]] and the [[United States Constitution]]. The [[United States Republican Party|Republican]] administration of Governor [[Tom Corbett]] filed suit in the [[Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania]] in an attempt to block Hanes from licensing same-sex marriage.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/08/19/pennsylvania-gay-marriage_n_3781645.html|agency=The Huffington Post|date=August 19, 2013|access-date=August 26, 2013|title=Pennsylvania Gay Marriage Law Deemed 'Suspect' By County Official}}</ref> Commonwealth Court Judge [[Dan Pellegrini]] ordered Hanes in September 2013 to stop issuing same-sex marriage licenses. After Federal Judge [[John E. Jones III|John Jones]] threw out Pennsylvania's ban on same-sex marriage in May 2014, calling it unconstitutional, offices in other counties were able to issue these licenses, while Hanes had to wait for the ruling against him to be removed.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.timesherald.com/article/JR/20140521/NEWS/140529964 |title=Montgomery County still unable to issue same-sex marriage licenses |newspaper=The Times Herald |date=May 21, 2014 |access-date=January 24, 2018 }}</ref>
