In 1996, Bill Clinton became the first Democrat to carry Oakland County since Lyndon Johnson in 1964, and only the fourth to do so since 1892. Al Gore and John Kerry also carried the county, by narrow margins, against George W. Bush in 2000 and 2004, respectively. In 2008, the county swung hard to Barack Obama, who became the first Democrat to win a majority in the county since LBJ, and only the third to do so since 1884. ("See table at right".) He again carried the county in 2012, though by a smaller margin. Hillary Clinton won a narrow majority in 2016. In 2020, Joe Biden won it with 57 percent, the best showing for a Democrat in the county since LBJ.
