Northern Florida which is actually Southern must vote very heavily. Those folks are more closely aligned with their northern neighbors in Georgia and Alabama than with Miami and Ft Lauderdale.
Yep. An ironic twist: Nothern Florida is more akin to the South. South Florida is more akin to the Northeast. Of course on the 2012 map posted above you can see the influence of academia in Gainsville and Tallahassee, plus the State feed trough.
Jackson County in North Florida is heavily blue dog Democrat. Gadsden, next to it, is heavily black, as is Jefferson and Madison counties. Leon, the home of FSU, will go D too. West Florida will go R, big, but we lack the population to counter the southern counties.
I’m counting on all counties to have a significant Trump vote.
