Government and politics

Much like the state and the rest of the Deep South, Geneva County was locked for the Democrats before 1964, until Herbert Hoover won against Democrat nominee Al Smith in 1928 by 48 votes. However, ever since 1980, Geneva County has been a Republican stronghold. The last Democrat to carry the county was Deep South native Jimmy Carter in 1976.

Geneva is also noteworthy for being the best county in the country for Alabama native George Wallace in the 1968 election,^[9] where his main support was from the Deep South and was strongest in the Wiregrass and Piney Woods regions.
