Florida was called on Tuesday evening with President Donald J. Trump as the winner. He received 29 electoral votes in the state. 

“It’s official: Florida is still Trump country,” said his Florida campaign spokesperson, Emma Vaughn. “Florida has once again delivered its 29 electoral votes for President Trump and is ready for Four More Years.”
