Florida US Election Results 2024: who won in Miami, Tallassee, Orlando... | Electoral map and votes by county in FL

Florida is once again making headlines this election year, although the Sunshine State’s position as a battleground state isn’t quite what it used to be. Back in 2020, Donald Trump won Florida by 3.3%, widening his lead from a slim 1.2% margin in 2016. This made Florida an outlier among battleground states, as Trump increased his margin here while losing nationally to Joe Biden. In this election cycle, many polls show Trump with a narrow lead in Florida again, and early counts are being watched closely in key cities like Miami, Tallahassee, and Orlando as the state’s 30 electoral votes remain up for grabs.

County Results and Electoral Map

Throughout election night, Florida’s county-by-county results begin to paint a clearer picture of voting trends. Miami-Dade County, traditionally a Democratic stronghold, has seen a noticeable swing toward Republicans in recent years. This shift continues in 2024, with close margins and fierce competition. In contrast, Orange County, where Orlando sits, remains a consistent base for Democratic support, potentially offsetting Republican gains in other regions.

Tallahassee, located in Leon County, remains a stronghold for Democratic voters, as seen in recent elections. Meanwhile, in conservative-leaning areas like Polk, Lee, and Pasco counties, Trump is performing well. In Florida, every county plays a role in the state’s final tally, even as more densely populated areas often swing elections.
