Republicans eye Florida win

  • 12 years ago
The upcoming Republican primary in Florida is a key battle ground in the race for the presidential nomination.

Florida is important for several key reasons because it is a closed primary, only the 2 million registered republicans can vote.

Adam Smith, a political editor. said "a win in Florida gives you a pretty credible claim that you can stack up in the general election. Because even though it's just republicans voting here it's a big diverse group of republicans."
