The 2020 United States presidential election in Florida was held on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, as part of the 2020 United States presidential election, in which all 50 states and the District of Columbia participated. Florida voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote, pitting the Republican Party's nominee, incumbent president Donald Trump, and his running mate, Vice President Mike Pence, against Democratic Party nominee, former vice president Joe Biden, and his running mate, United States senator Kamala Harris, of California. Florida had 29 electoral votes in the Electoral College.

Florida was one of six states as well as Washington, D.C., where Trump received a greater percentage of the two-party vote than he did in 2016.
Miami Beach, Florida, which hosted the 1972 Democratic National Convention, was a finalist to host the 2020 Democratic National Convention. The other finalists were Milwaukee and Houston; Milwaukee was chosen. Florida was Trump's state of residency for this election; New York was his home state in 2016. Trump was the first nominee of either major party to be a Florida resident. Biden was selected as the Democratic nominee in the 2020 Florida Democratic presidential primary on March 17, 2020 also becoming the first former vice-president to run for president since Richard Nixon in 1968.
Before the election, aggregate polls had Biden in the lead in Florida by 1 to 3 percentage points. Despite this, Trump won by a 3.4-point margin, improving on his margin from 2016 by 2.2 points. This was the largest margin for any presidential election in Florida since 2004. The main reason was increased support for Trump among Latino voters in the state, particularly in Miami-Dade County, which Biden carried by 7.4 points, significantly less than Clinton's 29.4-point margin in 2016 and Obama's 23.7-point margin in 2012. Trump carried the Cuban vote with 56%, while Biden carried the Puerto Rican vote with 66%, and Trump and Biden split the South American vote with 50% each. Overall, Biden won 54% of Latinos.
In this election, Florida voted 7.8 points right of the nation as a whole, the furthest it has voted from the nation since 1988, when the state voted 14.6 points right of the national result. As of the 2024 presidential election, this was the only election in which Florida backed the losing candidate since 1992. Despite the overall rightward shift, Biden became the first Democrat since 1976 to win the heavily urbanized Duval County, historically a Republican stronghold and home to Jacksonville. Similarly, he became the first Democrat to win Seminole County since Harry Truman in 1948.

Analysis
This election was the first time since 1992, and only the second time since 1960, that Florida went to the losing candidate in a presidential election. It was also the first time since 1960 that both Ohio and Florida have voted for the losing candidate in a presidential election, the first time since 1992 that Florida voted Republican while neighboring Georgia voted Democratic, and the first time since 1992 that Florida voted more Republican than North Carolina. Trump also became the first Republican candidate to win Florida with a majority of the state's popular vote since George W. Bush did so in 2004.
Despite his loss statewide, Biden became the first Democrat to win Duval County—consolidated with Jacksonville—since Southerner Jimmy Carter in 1976, and the first Democrat to win Seminole County since Harry Truman in 1948. Biden also flipped Pinellas County back to the Democratic Party. Biden became the first Democrat to win the presidency without carrying Jefferson County since Lyndon B. Johnson in 1964, and the first Democrat to win the presidency without carrying Monroe County since Grover Cleveland in 1884.
Also, this is the first time since 1888 that Florida increased its margin to an incumbent that lost re-election nationally. Florida was one of six states where Trump received a higher percentage of the vote than he did in 2016. Florida is one of three states that voted twice for both Barack Obama and Trump, the other two being Ohio and Iowa.
Ex-felons
The United States Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit, located in Atlanta, ruled that ex-felons could not vote in Florida unless they pay fines and fees. Florida voters approved amendment 4 in November 2018, which restored voting for felons upon completion of all terms of sentence including parole or probation, except for those who committed murders or were involved in sex crimes. The Republican-controlled legislature then passed a law which required ex-felons to settle their financial obligation in courts. The United States District Court in Tallahassee ruled against it in May, but the circuit court overturned it in September, which was speculated to have created further problems for ex-felons when they voted in November. Civil rights organizations including American Civil Liberties Union opposed the decision by the court.
Miami-Dade County
In Miami-Dade County, the majority of Trump support came from the west and the majority of Biden support came from the east. People of Mexican, Haitian, and African descent tended to vote for Biden, while people of Cuban, Chilean and Colombian descent did so for Trump, as well as the critical Venezuelan vote swinging Republican. Trump won approximately two thirds of the vote in Hialeah, whereas it was nearly evenly split four years prior. Due to the heavy presence of the Cuban-American community, Hialeah traditionally, as of 2020, leaned towards Republican politics. Trump's coattails played a role in the election of Miami Republicans Carlos A. Giménez and Maria Elvira Salazar to the House of Representatives.
Residents of Cuban descent often had an antagonism against leftist movements due to associations with Fidel Castro. Trump sought to attract these voters by implementing anti-Cuba policies.
Additionally, Trump made efforts to target other Hispanic demographics. Trump significantly increased his share of the vote in majority-Hispanic Osceola County, winning 42.53% of the vote, the highest since 2004.

Florida was one of six states as well as Washington D C where Trump received a greater percentage of the two party vote than he did in 2016 Miami Beach Florida which hosted the 1972 Democratic National Convention was a finalist to host the 2020 Democratic National Convention The other finalists were Milwaukee and Houston Milwaukee was chosen Florida was Trump s state of residency for this election New York was his home state in 2016 Trump was the first nominee of either major party to be a Florida resident Biden was selected as the Democratic nominee in the 2020 Florida Democratic presidential primary on March 17 2020 also becoming the first former vice president to run for president since Richard Nixon in 1968 Before the election aggregate polls had Biden in the lead in Florida by 1 to 3 percentage points Despite this Trump won by a 3 4 point margin improving on his margin from 2016 by 2 2 points This was the largest margin for any presidential election in Florida since 2004 The main reason was increased support for Trump among Latino voters in the state particularly in Miami Dade County which Biden carried by 7 4 points significantly less than Clinton s 29 4 point margin in 2016 and Obama s 23 7 point margin in 2012 Trump carried the Cuban vote with 56 while Biden carried the Puerto Rican vote with 66 and Trump and Biden split the South American vote with 50 each Overall Biden won 54 of Latinos In this election Florida voted 7 8 points right of the nation as a whole the furthest it has voted from the nation since 1988 when the state voted 14 6 points right of the national result As of the 2024 presidential election this was the only election in which Florida backed the losing candidate since 1992 Despite the overall rightward shift Biden became the first Democrat since 1976 to win the heavily urbanized Duval County historically a Republican stronghold and home to Jacksonville Similarly he became the first Democrat to win Seminole County

went to the losing candidate in a presidential election It was also the first time since 1960 that both Ohio and Florida have voted for the losing candidate in a presidential election the first time since 1992 that Florida voted Republican while neighboring Georgia voted Democratic and the first time since 1992 that Florida voted more Republican than North Carolina Trump also became the first Republican candidate to win Florida with a majority of the state s popular vote since George W Bush did so in 2004 Despite his loss statewide Biden became the first Democrat to win Duval County consolidated with Jacksonville since Southerner Jimmy Carter in 1976 and the first Democrat to win Seminole County since Harry Truman in 1948 Biden also flipped Pinellas County back to the Democratic Party Biden became the first Democrat to win the presidency without carrying Jefferson County since Lyndon B Johnson in 1964 and the first Democrat to win the presidency without carrying Monroe County since Grover Cleveland in 1884 Also this is the first time since 1888 that Florida increased its margin to an incumbent that lost re election nationally Florida was one of six states where Trump received a higher percentage of the vote than he did in 2016 Florida is one of three states that voted twice for both Barack Obama and Trump the other two being Ohio and Iowa Ex felons The United States Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit located in Atlanta ruled that ex felons could not vote in Florida unless they pay fines and fees Florida voters approved amendment 4 in November 2018 which restored voting for felons upon completion of all terms of sentence including parole or probation except for those who committed murders or were involved in sex crimes The Republican controlled legislature then passed a law which required ex felons to settle their financial obligation in courts The United States District Court in Tallahassee ruled against it in May but the circuit court overturned it in September which was speculated to have created further problems for ex felons when they voted in November Civil rights organizations including American Civil Liberties Union opposed the decision by the court Miami Dade County In Miami Dade County the majority of Trump support came from the west and the majority of Biden support came from the east People of Mexican Haitian and African descent tended to vote for Biden while people of Cuban Chilean and Colombian descent did so for Trump as well as the critical Venezuelan vote swinging Republican Trump won approximately two thirds of the vote in Hialeah whereas it was nearly evenly split four years prior Due to the heavy presence of the Cuban American community Hialeah traditionally as of 2020 leaned towards Republican politics Trump s coattails played a role in the election of Miami Republicans Carlos A Gimenez and Maria Elvira Salazar to the House of Representatives Residents of Cuban descent often had an antagonism against leftist movements due to associations with Fidel Castro Trump sought to attract these voters by implementing anti Cuba policies Additionally Trump made efforts to target other Hispanic demographics Trump significantly increased his share of the vote in majority Hispanic Osceola County winning 42 53 of the vote the highest since 2004 Edison exit polls 2020 presidential
