Hispanics increasingly voting Republican in Florida, Miami-Dade County

(The Center Square) – The trend of more Hispanics voting Republican in Florida continues this election cycle after records were broken in 2022. A new poll also shows that the greatest number of Cuban Americans in recorded history say they are voting for former President Donald Trump.

Increasing Hispanic support for Republicans continues after a red wave swept through Florida, ushering Gov. Ron DeSantis into his second term in 2022. DeSantis not only defeated his Democratic challenger by 16 points, the largest margin of any gubernatorial race in 40 years, but built momentum that flipped several counties from blue to red. Included among them was Miami-Dade County, the largest county in Florida with a 70% Hispanic population.
