In the 2020 election, Karnes County voted overwhelmingly Republican, with more than 75 percent of the votes cast in favor of President Donald Trump and U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX). However, when it came to county sheriff, Democrat Villanueva won by more than 30 points, receiving 65.8 percent of the vote.
