So funny that the Deep South parts of Florida went for the guy representing a quintessential “Sun Belt”/fast-growing state while the fast-growing Sun Belt areas of FL went for a guy who grew up dirt poor in central Texas, but such were the dynamics of the 1964 race.

LBJ did fine in the upper south.

Well, LBJ's raw margin in Miami Dade was 4,31% of the total state vote (margin, not total county vote). Goldwater need 14 counties at minimun to get a bigger raw margin.
