Why Voting Matters
Voting is how Henry County residents shape the decisions made in their name. The next election for Henry County voters is Alabama's primary and presidential preference primary on March 7, 2028; local elections can come sooner, so check your local election office. Many Henry County jobs are in utilities and manufacturing, so decisions about energy costs and manufacturing jobs hit close to home.
Henry County voters cast about 9,300 ballots for president in 2024, about the same as the 9,300 cast in 2020. Compared with the county's roughly 14,700 adult residents, that works out to about 63%, above the statewide rate of about 55%.
That means roughly 5,420 adult residents did not cast a presidential ballot. Some are not eligible, but many are, and that is a lot of untapped power. If just one in 20 of them voted, Henry County would add about 271 voices, more than enough to decide a close local race.
