The strong performance of Cuban American Republicans in Miami-Dade and Florida Keys reflects a significant shift in voter alignment, consolidating the GOP’s influence in these districts.
In a political environment where the Democratic Party viewed local races as non-competitive, Republican incumbents faced less-known opponents and leveraged their funding advantages, ensuring their reelection.
The confidence in GOP candidates was evident, with models predicting over a 90% chance of winning for Salazar and her Miami colleagues, demonstrating their strong support among constituents.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee targeted Salazar’s District 27, emphasizing its 74% Hispanic demographic, but despite their efforts, she significantly outraised her opponent and maintained a strong lead.
