The 2020 United States presidential election in Florida was held on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, as part of the 2020 United States elections in which all 50 states plus the District of Columbia will participate.[2] Florida voters will choose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. The state of Florida has 29 electoral votes in the Electoral College.[3]

Florida, which has voted against the overall winner only twice since 1928, is once again a vital battleground state in this election.

Miami Beach, Florida, which hosted the 1972 Democratic National Convention, was a finalist to host the 2020 Democratic National Convention.[4] The other finalists were Milwaukee and Houston. Milwaukee was ultimately decided as the host.[5][6] Florida will be incumbent president Donald Trump's state of residency for this election, after having identified New York as his home state in 2016.[7] As a result, Trump became the first nominee of either major party to be a Florida resident. Vice President Joe Biden was selected as the Democratic Party's presidential nominee in the 2020 Florida Democratic presidential primary on March 17, 2020.

United States Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit, located in Atlanta, ruled that ex-felons could not vote in Florida unless they pay fines and fees. Florida voters approved amendment 4 in November 2018, which restored voting for felons upon completion of all terms of sentence including parole or probation, except for those who committed murders or were involved in sex-crimes.[8] The Republican-controlled legislature then passed a law which required ex-felons to settle their financial obligation in courts. United States District Court in Tallahassee ruled against it in May, but the circuit court overturned it in September, which may create further problems for ex-felons to exercise their voting rights in November. Civil rights organizations including American Civil Liberties Union opposed the decision by the court.[9]

Trump ended up winning Florida by roughly three and a half percentage points, higher than he did in 2016. This was in part due to unexpectedly high support among Hispanic and Latino voters in the state, particularly in Miami-Dade County, where the Republicans got a higher share of the vote than they did in 2016 and the 2018 midterm elections. This also affected down-ballot races, where Republicans flipped the 26th and 27th congressional districts, seats which many political experts thought would reelect their Democratic representatives. It was also the first time since 1992, and also the second time since 1960, that Florida went to the losing candidate in a presidential election.
