The thing with Niagara County is you have the city of Niagara Falls which is heavily black and votes like any other minority-majority city, then you have some democratic leaning suburbs of Buffalo (ie. North Tonawanda and Lockport), some cute wine country towns like Lewiston, which if I had to guess are also Democratic learning, the incredibly wealthy Escarpment area which again, I assume is slightly Democratic leaning, and then the rest of the county is farm country which is heavily Republican.  All of this makes for a very polarized county which doesn't budge from election to election.
