Statewide margin
2016
+1.2 Trump
2020
+3.4 Trump
More than half of the counties in Florida — a must-win battleground for President Trump — swung further right, allowing him to win the state with a margin that is nearly three times what he had four years ago.
Shift in margin
In counties that have reported almost all of their votes
More Democratic
More Republican
About a third of counties voted more Democratic. Joseph R. Biden Jr. did well in Pinellas, home to St. Petersburg, which twice supported Barack Obama for president before voting for Mr. Trump in 2016. Mr. Biden flipped a large county — Duval, home of Jacksonville — which Mr. Trump won by a slight margin in 2016.
Mr. Biden’s gains, however, were not enough to make up for votes he lost in populous Miami-Dade County, relative to Hillary Clinton’s returns four years ago.
Mr. Biden underperformed in many precincts with a majority Hispanic population, particularly those in the Cuban-American communities of Miami-Dade County, which overwhelmingly supported Mr. Trump.
Circles are sized by total vote count. Precinct data is not available for some counties.
The surge among Cuban-American voters boosted Mr. Trump’s vote totals in the county, where he picked up nearly 200,000 more votes than four years ago.
