Wow, Senior Citizens make up the R base in Florida National Politics?! WOAH!

To be honest, this article is well constructed but tells a story we all(hopefully all, we are on a political forum) know. Latinos, especially Cuban Americans, are moving to the Democratic party up and down the ballot, while retirees are moving into the state, keeping it a tossup. Florida appears to be a state that will be in limbo for some time, as the flow has been constant on both sides. There is no growing metropolis like Phoenix to finally tip the balance, nor is there a rural shift that can occur like in the Rust Belt. Turnout is the only way to win in Florida.

Florida is a Republican-leaning, Swing State, and will remain so for the foreseeable future, due to the influx of Wealthy, White, Retirees, counteracting the growing minority population.
My thoughts exactly. This is one of the only states I would say will trend R in the foreseeable future. The amount of retirees going there outweighs the voter turnout and growth of Hispanics. Not to mention the Cubans always messing us up.

Lean R in the future, can still be won, but it wont be easy.
