Map: Where Trump Won Big In Broward — And Where He Performed Poorly

With all his opponents having dropped out, former President Donald Trump won every city in Broward in Florida’s presidential primary, though he didn’t perform quite as well as he did in the rest of the state. And the Republican votes in the county’s cities and towns weren’t uniform. Some communities provided him a much larger share of the vote than the 79.8% he received countywide, and others much less. There was a swath of Trump support in the southwest part of Broward — Miramar, Pembroke Pines, and Southwest Ranches — and a stretch from the northeast through the north-central part of the county, including Coconut Creek, Deerfield Beach, Margate, Lauderhill, Tamarac and Sunrise. He also overperformed in Hallandale Beach. Trump’s two worst cities were Fort Lauderdale and, especially, neighboring Wilton Manors. He also underperformed in some of Broward’s most affluent enclaves near the coast — Lighthouse Point, Hillsboro Beach and Sea Ranch Lakes — and in the western part of the county — Parkland and Weston. Many of the Republicans who live in the cities where Trump performance lagged are more like a previous generation of fiscally conservative but socially moderate Republicans, and less like adherents of the Trump-inspired MAGA movement. He also received a lower percentage of the vote in Cooper City and Plantation. One city stood out: Wilton Manors.
