Research Note: Measuring the Amish Vote in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, 2024

View through CrossRef
The potential impact of Amish voting on the 2024 presidential election, especially in Pennsylvania, attracted considerable media coverage and speculation on the possible role Amish voters might play in the election outcome. This research note reports on Amish voting in 2024 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, drawing on a larger, ongoing research project into Amish voting across time in various states and settlements. While both the Amish vote total and the Amish turnout rate in Lancaster County were lower than in 2020, the numbers add to a growing body of data by the authors and raise new questions. Here, we place the 2024 data in context, offer several hypotheses, and suggest possible implications.
