HISTORIC GOP
BLOWOUT!
GOVERNOR
DESANTIS
20-Point
Victory
“I have only begun to
fight!”
Governor DeSantis won a historic landslide
victory Tuesday night as the state of Florida provided a red tsunami
to Republicans at every level from Governor and Cabinet to the
Legislature and Congress.
Governor DeSantis gave a Churchillian-level
victory speech election night to an ebullient crowd:
“Florida was a refuge of sanity when the world
locked down. We stood as a citadel of freedom for people across this
country and indeed across the world. We faced attacks, we took the
hits, we weathered the storms, but we stood our ground. We did not
back down. We had the conviction to guide us, and we had the courage
to lead. We made promises to the people of Florida, and we have
delivered on those promises. And so today, after four years, the
people have delivered their verdict. Freedom is here to
stay.”
The victory was as complete and overwhelming as
possible and cements Florida not just as a red state, but a leading
red state. Exit polls show huge swings among Hispanics and female
voters, all age groups over 29, and improvement among black voters,
with Governor DeSantis winning almost every demographic. He
won:
- Males (64%)
- Females (53%)
- White (65%)
- Latino (58%)
- Cuban
(69%)
- Puerto
Rican (56%)
- College grads (56%)
- Married (62%)
- Non-Married (50%)
- Independents (52%)
- Suburban (58%)

SENATOR RUBIO
17-Point Victory
Senator Rubio demolished Democrat-media darling
Val Demings. She spent almost twice as much money and had the media
flogging for her, but all to no avail as Senator Rubio won almost
every demographic and also flipped formerly blue counties red.
CABINET
Attorney General Ashley
Moody
21-Point
Victory
CFO Jimmy Patronis
19-Point
Victory
Ag Commissioner Wilton
Simpson
19-Point

LEGISLATURE
Republican successes ushered in supermajorities
in both the Florida House and the Senate, cementing conservative,
pro-freedom dominance in Florida.
CONGRESSIONAL
PICKUPS
Florida Republicans picked up four Congressional
seats and lost none, contributing to Republicans re-taking control of
the U.S. House. Republicans now hold 20 Florida congressional seats to
the Democrats 8.
MIAMI-DADE AND
OTHER FLIPS
Miami-Dade was the biggest county to flip from
the 2018 gubernatorial race, but so did Palm Beach, Hillsborough,
Pinellas, Duval and Osceola counties.
No other state in the nation is turning major
metro areas such as Miami, Tampa and Jacksonville red.
