Florida Cuban vote

[El Betico]

Hillary won Miami-Dade by a record 63-33 margin...and then, accordingly to the exit polls, Trump did win Cuban vote 54-41...it's an utterly nonsense in my opinion.

Personally I think that Hillary Clinton won the Cuban vote by roughly the same margin these outlier exit polls credited to Trump, but Trump margin with white voters was bigger in respect to what the exit polls showed and allowed him to win Florida despite minorities' hostility...am I right? I don't think non-white voters played any role in Trump upset victory, even Florida Cubans were more Democratic than ever in 2016, from my point of view. Van Jones on CNN on Election Night was totally right.

2012
Obama: 541,440 (61.58%)
Romney: 332,981 (37.57%)

2016
Clinton: 642,146 (63.22%)
Trump: 333,999 (33.83%)

Not much change in the Republican vote. Big increase in Democratic voters though.

Miami-Dade is not an overwhelmingly Cuban county anymore- they are about half of the population there. Dominicans, Colombians, Venezuelans, Mexicans, Puerto Ricans, Nicaraguans, Hondurans, Peruvians, Argentinians, Brazilians, Salvadorians, etc also make up the Hispanic electorate there. Cuban voters weren't responsible for Trump's win in Florida IMO. Conservative white voters born in the early part of the Baby Boomer generation who had retired there from the Midwest and Northeast were.
