The interesting thing to me there is the NPA numbers. It's tempting to split those down the middle, but that is a lot of voters, and just like in North Carolina it seems like NPA voters are generally not frequent voters, and disproportionately Latino.
I still think Florida will be close, but I also think Trump will be playing catchup on Tuesday, and will need massive margins in the panhandle, and needs to win the "I-4 Corridor" if he is going to offset what looks like a massive lead for Clinton in Dade and Broward counties.
Also: the fact that I know where all of those places are is a sign that Florida, and its ridiculous elections, are in the news too often.
