(5MinNewsBreak.com) – Posing a huge challenge to the Democrat Party, Miami-Dade County’s political landscape is shifting: Hispanic voters are turning the Sunshine State deep red.
Once a Democrat stronghold, this crucial swing state now sees Republicans outnumbering Democrats by a staggering one million voters.
The Republican wave sweeping through Florida’s Hispanic communities is nothing short of historic.
In a stunning turn of events, Governor Ron DeSantis became the first Republican gubernatorial candidate in 20 years to win Miami-Dade County in 2022.
This victory marked a dramatic reversal from just six years ago when Democrats held a 300,000 voter registration advantage.
Celebrating this major shift, DeSantis declared, “Six years ago, registered Democrats outnumbered registered Republicans by almost 300,000 – and Florida had never had more registered Republicans than Democrats in its history.”
“Now, Republicans outnumber Democrats by 1 million voters, which is a sea change that few thought possible,” he added.
At the heart of this political transformation are Cuban Americans, who make up a significant portion of South Florida’s Hispanic population.
A whopping 68% of likely Cuban American voters in Florida now support Republican nominee Donald Trump.
This shift has been explained: Hispanic voters are fed up with the Democrats’ failed economic policies.
With inflation soaring and affordable housing becoming a pipe dream, Florida’s Hispanic community is turning to Republicans for solutions.
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’ dismal handling of the economy has only sped up this trend, pushing more Hispanic voters into the welcoming arms of the GOP.
The numbers do not lie. In the 2020 election, Florida had the highest percentage of Hispanic voters supporting Trump compared to any other state.
This trend has only intensified as 54% of Cuban Americans in Florida are now registered as Republicans.
As the 2024 election approaches, Republicans are expected to capitalize on this momentum.
With over 1.9 million Floridians having already voted early in person and Republicans showing a strong preference for in-person voting, the stage is set for another red wave in the Sunshine State.
