WASHINGTON (Sputnik) – Florida’s role in the US elections is considered crucial for either of the two major-party candidates to win the presidency since the southeastern US state has 29 electoral votes, fourth most in the country.

The state occasionally determines the result of the whole election, making it the largest swing state and the ultimate political battleground.

According to the Real Clear Politics average of national polls, Trump was leading against Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in Florida ahead of the Tuesday vote by 0.4 percent (47.0 percent versus 46.6 percent).

"Don't let up, keep getting out to vote — this election is FAR FROM OVER! We are doing well but there is much time left. GO FLORIDA!" Trump wrote on Twitter.
