"Though separated by just a few miles, Los Alamos and Rio Arriba counties—both nestled northwest of Santa Fe—are worlds apart politically. Los Alamos, home to the eponymous laboratory, is more than two-thirds white and the wealthiest county in New Mexico. A whopping 68 percent of residents have a bachelor’s degree and 43 percent have a postgraduate degree. The median household income approaches $150,000. In short, chock full of elites.

In contrast, Rio Arriba is two-thirds Hispanic with a median household income of $53,000. Just 17 percent have a college degree—less than half the national average. And in November, Rio Arriba shifted 14 points to the right as Trump turned in the best GOP performance there since 1972.

Los Alamos, meanwhile, shifted 4 points to the left—no small feat considering the breadth of Trump’s win—and delivered Harris a 30-point win. It was the best Democratic performance in Los Alamos since 1964 and the first time ever that Los Alamos voted to the left of Rio Arriba.

The political winds that propelled Los Alamos and Rio Arriba in opposite directions swept not just across the Land of Enchantment, but the entire country—a shift that highlights one of the most startling results of the 2024 election. For the first time since exit polls began tracking household income, Democrats did better with voters making more than $100,000 than with voters making less than $50,000."
