class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Obama won the state and its 29 electoral votes on Election Day by a margin of 0.88%, down from the 2.82% margin in <a href="/wiki/2008_United_States_presidential_election_in_Florida" title="2008 United States presidential election in Florida">2008</a>. Florida was the closest race in the country at the presidential level. Throughout the night, Obama and Romney exchanged the lead, but the networks avoided calling the state for Obama until November 10 because long lines in the larger urban areas of the state meant that the vote count was delayed. </p><p>According to exit polling, Obama won 95% of the <a href="/wiki/African_Americans" title="African Americans">African-American</a> vote (13% of voters), 60% of Latino voters (up 3 points from 2008 and 17% of all voters), and 50% among Independents (who accounted for 33% of all voters). Mitt Romney won white voters by 24 percent. In addition, both Democratic and Republican strategists agreed that the President's ground game and early voting leads played a huge role in such a tight race. Despite laws that curbed early voting, more than 4 million Floridians cast a ballot before Election Day (almost 50% of all voters), and reports showed that Obama was leading by about 104,000 among those voters. </p><p>The political geography of Florida is largely divided in thirds: <a href="/wiki/South_Florida" title="South Florida">South Florida</a> (around the <a href="/wiki/Miami_metropolitan_area" title="Miami metropolitan area">Miami metropolitan area</a>) is heavily Democratic, <a href="/wiki/North_Florida" title="North Florida">North Florida</a> (the <a href="/wiki/Florida_Panhandle" class="mw-redirect" title="Florida Panhandle">Florida Panhandle</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Jacksonville_metropolitan_area" title="Jacksonville metropolitan area">Jacksonville metropolitan area</a>) is heavily Republican outside of <a href="/wiki/Tallahassee,_Florida" title="Tallahassee, Florida">Tallahassee</a> and <a href="/wiki/Gainesville,_Florida" title="Gainesville, Florida">Gainesville</a>, while <a href="/wiki/Central_Florida" title="Central Florida">Central Florida</a> is a "swing" area of the state, where Democrats have made inroads in recent years. </p><p>Mirroring the results of the 2008 presidential election in Florida, Obama dominated <a href="/wiki/South_Florida" title="South Florida">South Florida</a>, winning <a href="/wiki/Miami-Dade_County,_Florida" title="Miami-Dade County, Florida">Miami-Dade</a>, <a href="/wiki/Broward_County,_Florida" title="Broward County, Florida">Broward</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Palm_Beach_County,_Florida" title="Palm Beach County, Florida">Palm Beach</a> counties by comfortable margins, and actually increased his vote share in Miami -Dade and Broward counties from 2008. However, Romney's performance in Palm Beach County was notable considering he is the first Republican presidential candidate in over a decade to receive over 40% of the county's vote. Obama's gains in South Florida have been attributed to increasing his vote share among <a href="/wiki/Cuban_Americans" title="Cuban Americans">Cuban Americans</a>, a large demographic in and around <a href="/wiki/Miami" title="Miami">Miami</a> who have reliably voted Republican, from 35% in 2008 to 48% against Romney's 52% in 2012. Combined with his large margins of victory among non-Cuban Hispanics in the state, Arian Campo-Flores at <i><a href="/wiki/The_Wall_Street_Journal" title="The Wall Street Journal">The Wall Street Journal</a></i> noted that, "Together, both trends are accelerating a realignment of the state's Latino vote, from once solidly Republican to now reliably Democratic."<sup id="cite_ref-36" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-36"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>36<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Although Obama lost large swaths of <a href="/wiki/North_Florida" title="North Florida">North Florida</a>, he was able to keep the margins relatively close along the Eastern Seaboard. He lost to Romney in <a href="/wiki/Duval_County,_Florida" title="Duval County, Florida">Duval County</a>, anchored by Florida's largest city, <a href="/wiki/Jacksonville,_Florida" title="Jacksonville, Florida">Jacksonville</a>, by only 3%, and <a href="/wiki/Volusia_County,_Florida" title="Volusia County, Florida">Volusia County</a>, home to <a href="/wiki/Daytona_Beach,_Florida" title="Daytona Beach, Florida">Daytona Beach</a>, by less than 2%. Where the state tipped into the Obama column was in <a href="/wiki/Central_Florida" title="Central Florida">Central Florida</a>, the site of enormous growth in the last two decades. Obama was able to deliver big wins in the <a href="/wiki/Greater_Orlando" title="Greater Orlando">Orlando</a> and <a href="/wiki/Tampa_Bay_area" title="Tampa Bay area">Tampa Bay</a> areas, where <a href="/wiki/George_W._Bush" title="George W. Bush">George W. Bush</a> won in <a href="/wiki/2004_United_States_presidential_election_in_Florida" title="2004 United States presidential election in Florida">2004</a>. In the former, Obama carried <a href="/wiki/Orange_County,_Florida" title="Orange County, Florida">Orange County</a> (which includes <a href="/wiki/Orlando,_Florida" title="Orlando, Florida">Orlando</a>) by 19 points and <a href="/wiki/Osceola_County,_Florida" title="Osceola County, Florida">Osceola County</a> near Orlando by a 24-point margin (Bush won it in 2004 52%-47%). In both counties, he was able to tap into a growing Puerto Rican community, which overwhelmingly broke his way. </p><p>In the Tampa Bay region, Obama once again carried <a href="/wiki/Hillsborough_County,_Florida" title="Hillsborough County, Florida">Hillsborough County</a>, home to <a href="/wiki/Tampa,_Florida" title="Tampa, Florida">Tampa</a>, by a 6-point margin, receiving over 13,000 more votes than he won in 2008.

Bush had narrowly carried the county by about 0.1% in 2004. In all, Obama won the three largest counties in Central Florida – Hillsborough, Orange, and Pinellas – while keeping his losing margins low in other populous counties – <a href="/wiki/Polk_County,_Florida" title="Polk County, Florida">Polk</a>, <a href="/wiki/Seminole_County,_Florida" title="Seminole County, Florida">Seminole</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Manatee_County,_Florida" title="Manatee County, Florida">Manatee County</a>. </p><p>Contrary to the <a href="/wiki/2010_United_States_House_of_Representatives_elections_in_Florida" title="2010 United States House of Representatives elections in Florida">2010 elections</a> where Democrats lost four seats from Florida in the <a href="/wiki/United_States_House_of_Representatives" title="United States House of Representatives">U.S. House of Representatives</a>, Democrats picked up four seats from Florida this time around, as the state's congressional delegation increased by 2 members. <a href="/wiki/Patrick_Murphy_(Florida_politician)" title="Patrick Murphy (Florida politician)">Patrick Murphy</a> defeated incumbent Republican <a href="/wiki/Allen_West_(politician)" title="Allen West (politician)">Allen West</a> in <a href="/wiki/Florida%27s_18th_congressional_district" title="Florida's 18th congressional district">Florida's 18th congressional district</a> and <a href="/wiki/Joe_Garcia" title="Joe Garcia">Joe Garcia</a> defeated incumbent Republican <a href="/wiki/David_Rivera" title="David Rivera">David Rivera</a> in <a href="/wiki/Florida%27s_26th_congressional_district" title="Florida's 26th congressional district">Florida's 26th congressional district</a>.
