The counties compared cast 76% as many votes as in 2024, from 90% in Sumter County to 65% in Baker County. Where turnout ran higher, the county moved more toward the Republicans (r = −0.48).

Osceola County moved most: R+1.5 for president in 2024, D+17.8 this year

The 10 counties with the largest moves from the 2024 presidential vote, among those with 2,000 or more votes for president in 2024 and a quarter of that counted, and at least half a percent of the state's 2024 vote. Each line runs from the 2024 margin to this year’s.
