Voter Registration Updates for Key Florida Counties – March 25th, 2025
Bottom Line: In a matter of four years Florida went from being viewed as the ultimate swing state to a red state. The state’s latest voter registration information reflected the continued surge in Republican momentum in Florida that has extended beyond November’s election. The Republican advantage over Democrats stood at a record of over 1.18 million voters entering March.
The record performance for Republicans over the prior two election cycles wouldn’t have been possible if not for the rightward turn of three of the four largest counties - Hillsborough, Miami-Dade and Palm Beach. Last November’s election featured President Trump winning traditional blue counties Duval, Hillsborough, Miami-Dade and Osceola – while only losing Palm Beach County by less than one point.
At the peak of the Democrat voter registration advantage in Palm Beach County, Democrats held an advantage of 138,400 voters. Democrats now hold an advantage of 36,222 – a total that’s 1,048 fewer voters than the previous update. Here's a look at other key counties with net partisan changes over the prior month:
- Duval: Democrats currently lead Republicans by 10,535 (GOP +944 voters)
- Hillsborough: Republicans flipped the county to a GOP majority with a lead of 2,817 (GOP +693 voters)
- Indian River: Republicans currently hold an advantage of 34,428 (GOP +114 voters)
- Martin: Republicans now hold an advantage of 37,345 (GOP +2,900 voters)
- Miami Dade: Democrats currently lead Republicans by 21,331 (GOP +2,490 voters)
- Osceola: Democrats currently lead Republicans by 19,296 (GOP +186 voters)
All counties continued to see a move towards the right over the past month. The biggest storyline in Florida’s political scene continues to be the state’s blue counties becoming far less blue. Palm Beach County represents one of the most significant shifts in the state. In this off-election year, changes in voter registrations will be the most visible signs of political trends within the state.
