14 The 2016 Vote: Does Trump owe Cubans the Florida Win?

15 Cuban-American voters accounted for approximately six percent (564,938) of the 9,415,638 Florida voters who cast a ballot for President. (Source: CNN, Florida Division of Elections. Retrieved: 11/13/16 at 3:47 PM.

16 Trump won the state by approximately 113,000 votes.
Clinton won little under 50% of the Cuban-American vote (Pew Research Center). Let’s call it 44% to be conservative. (248,572) Even if Clinton had improved her performance by 10 percentage points among Cuban-Americans, (and received 54% of their vote) this would have gained her only an additional 62,143 votes. Well short of her deficit. Gary Johnson received 207,043. Might as well give him the credit. As FiveThirtyEight pointed out, “Cuban-Americans would have needed to vote for Hillary Clinton by an impossibly wide margin to swing the election her way, and Trump would have won the state if they hadn’t voted at all.”

17 Hillary Clinton improved on Obama’s numbers in Cuban precincts “Cubanos” (Trump won these areas 50% a 48%)
