As an outsider why is Florida such a important state ?

People keep saying if they win Florida they win the Whitehouse , what makes florida so important compared to other states ?

It's a swing state worth 29 electoral votes. Since you only need 270 to win, 29 votes that are basically up in the air every election are a big grab.

CNN: Florida, more votes counted—Hillary Clinton is now ahead of Donald Trump. Clinton 49.2%, Trump 47.9%.
 
Man, I am now pretty sure that the Dems are not getting the Senate. Haven't the Dems lost two key races? Or am I chicken little-ing this?

29 electoral votes, while being a swing state (historically I think, though its voted Dem the last few times I think). For either side its a chunky gain that's difficult to overcome if they don't have it.

@steveschale: #Duuuuuval is basically a tie with all but about 50K votes left to count. That is horrible news for Trump.
 
Florida returned to the light side, at this moment never will return to the dark side since major urban counties began reporting
