Even with the GOP mortally divided between President [[William Howard Taft]] and [[Theodore Roosevelt]], Wilson only won the county by 29 votes. The best Democratic showings since then have been by [[Lyndon Johnson]] in 1964 and [[Barack Obama]] in 2008, both of whom received around 48 percent. [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]] and [[Bill Clinton]] are the only other Democrats since Wilson to cross the 40 percent mark, though [[Joe Biden]] came very close in 2020. {{PresHead|place=Walworth County, Wisconsin|whig=no|source1=<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS|title=Dave Leip's Atlas of U.S. Presidential Elections|last=Leip|first=David|website=uselectionatlas.org|access-date=November 11, 2020}}</ref><ref>https://www.co.walworth.wi.us/DocumentCenter/View/15916/11-05-24-General-Election-UNOFFICIAL-Complete-Election-Summary-Results-PDF</ref>}} <!-- PresRow should be {{PresRow|Year|Winning party|GOP/Whig vote #|Dem vote #|3rd party vote #|State}} --> {{PresRow|2024|Republican|36,574|23,139|837|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|2020|Republican|33,851|22,789|960|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|2016|Republican|28,863|18,710|3,818|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|2012|Republican|29,006|22,552|745|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|2008|Republican|25,485|24,177|760|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|2004|Republican|28,754|19,177|515|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|2000|Republican|22,982|15,492|1,984|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1996|Republican|15,099|13,283|4,579|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1992|Republican|15,727|11,825|9,244|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1988|Republican|18,259|12,203|223|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1984|Republican|20,595|9,877|238|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1980|Republican|19,194|11,344|3,192|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1976|Republican|18,091|12,418|798|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1972|Republican|17,823|8,598|546|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1968|Republican|15,040|7,505|1,770|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1964|Republican|12,225|11,746|38|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1960|Republican|16,395|7,986|20|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1956|Republican|16,696|4,922|172|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1952|Republican|16,906|5,417|49|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1948|Republican|10,509|5,377|265|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1944|Republican|10,901|5,696|86|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1940|Republican|11,594|5,449|111|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1936|Republican|8,462|7,093|511|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1932|Republican|7,858|6,790|204|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1928|Republican|9,846|4,253|97|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1924|Republican|7,484|1,162|4,434|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1920|Republican|8,437|1,631|390|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1916|Republican|3,988|2,440|257|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1912|Democratic|2,096|2,125|1,620|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1908|Republican|4,151|1,960|562|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1904|Republican|4,892|1,370|401|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1900|Republican|5,102|1,742|301|Wisconsin}} {{PresRow|1896|Republican|5,347|1,894|353|Wisconsin}} {{PresFoot|1892|Republican|3,871|2,153|591|Wisconsin}} ==Education== School districts include:<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www2.census.gov/geo/maps/DC2020/PL20/st55_wi/schooldistrict_maps/c55127_walworth/DC20SD_C55127.pdf |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20221009/https://www2.census.gov/geo/maps/DC2020/PL20/st55_wi/schooldistrict_maps/c55127_walworth/DC20SD_C55127.pdf |archive-date=October 9, 2022 |url-status=live|title=2020 CENSUS - SCHOOL DISTRICT REFERENCE MAP: Walworth County, WI|publisher=[[U.S. Census Bureau]]|accessdate=July 23, 2022}} - [Text list]</ref> K-12: {{div col|colwidth=30em}} * [[Burlington Area School District]] * [[Clinton Community School District (Wisconsin)|Clinton Community School District]] * [[Delavan-Darien School District]] * [[East Troy Community School District]] * [[Elkhorn Area School District]] * [[Mukwonago School District]] * [[Palmyra-Eagle Area School District]] * [[Whitewater School District]] * [[Williams Bay School District]] {{div col end}} Secondary: * [[Big Foot Union High School District]] * [[Lake Geneva-Genoa City Union High School District]] Elementary: {{div col|colwidth=30em}} * [[Fontana Joint No. 8 School District]] * [[Geneva Joint No. 4 School District]] * [[Genoa City Joint No. 2 School District]] * [[Lake Geneva Joint No. 1 School District]] * [[Linn Joint No. 4 School District]] * [[Linn Joint No. 6 School District]] * [[Sharon Joint No. 11 School District]] * [[Walworth Joint No. 1 School District]] {{div col end}} [[Wisconsin School for the Deaf]], a state-operated school, is in the county. ==See also== * [[National Register of Historic Places listings in Walworth County, Wisconsin]] * [[Walworth County Fairgrounds]] ==References== {{reflist}} ==Further reading== * ''[http://content.wisconsinhistory.org/cdm/ref/collection/wch/id/11628 History of Walworth County, Wisconsin]''.
