Johnson Democratic Party (United States) Lyndon B. Johnson Democratic Party (United States) The 1964 United States presidential election in Florida was held November 3, 1964. All contemporary fifty states and the District of Columbia took part, and Florida voters selected fourteen electors to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president. Although Johnson won the state amidst his national landslide, Florida weighed in as a massive 20.28% more Republican than the nation at large, and was the second-closest state won by Johnson, after Idaho.http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/ Dave Leip's Atlas of U.S. Presidential Elections Leip David uselectionatlas.org 2017-04-07 Johnson carried 20 of the state's 67 counties, although in only two of them, Monroe and Dade, did he exceed his nationwide vote share of 61.05%.Bullock, Charles S. and Gaddie, Ronald Keith; The Triumph of Voting Rights in the South, p. 254 0806185309 2016 11 As of the 2024 presidential election, this is the last election in which the Democratic candidate carried Charlotte County.Sullivan, Robert David; ‘How the Red and Blue Map Evolved Over the Past Century’; America Magazine in The National Catholic Review; June 29, 2016 Campaign thumb|A Lyndon B.

Johnson won Florida by 42,599 votes, a margin of 2.30%, or a swing of 5.32% from the 1960 result. Increased registration of black voters, which reached 51%, was crucial to Johnson regaining Florida.
