90% margin of error for Alabama, 2024: ±0.3 percentage points.

90% margin of error for United States, 2024: ±0.1 percentage points.

The CSV includes the original source notes, annotations and estimate margins where supplied. Original source data remain subject to their publishers’ terms.

We write with AI tools. Every figure comes from the data and sources named on this page, and automated checks compare it with them before it's published.
