Cuban-American voters identify themselves as Republicans, according to a Pew Research survey.

This is a finding that can have a massive effect on the upcoming elections, which U.S. President Donald Trump aims to recapture with his focus on the swing state of Florida this year.

Across the country, 58 percent of Cuban-American registered voters said that they lean toward the Republican Party.

Meanwhile, 38 percent affiliate with the Democratic Party. This was according to a survey by Pew Research conducted on Jul. 27 - Aug. 2, cited in We Are Mitu.

Overall, around two-thirds of Hispanic voters who are not Cuban, identify as Democratic. This accounts for the 65 percent.

Those who affiliate with the Republican Party stands at 32 percent.

Cuban-American Voters

For years, Cuban-American voters have supported the GOP in large numbers.

However, the support has eventually dwindled with a new generation of U.S. born, Democratic-leaning Cubans has come of age.

The same number of Cuban registered voters lean with the Republican Party with 47 percent and the Democratic Party with 44 percent.

2020 Presidential Election

Cuban-American registered voters have mixed views of Trump aiming for a reelection.

About 52 percent say the approve of the way Trump is handling his presidency, while 45 percent expressed disapproval.

Only 26 percent on non-Cuban Hispanic voters are okay with Trump's administration, while 70 percent disapprove.

Trump's rating among these groups are close to the same to those in a Dec. 2019 national survey of Latino adults, which was conducted before the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cuban-American voters of Trump are deeply divided based on party lines. Around 81 percent of Cuban-Americans Republicans approve of Trump, while 91 percent of Cuban-Americans Democrats disapprove of the president.

Most Cuban-American voters said they are focusing in to the 2020 presidential campaign. The idea of Trump's victory results in stronger reactions in the group, both positive and negative.

Around 19 percent said they would feel excited if Trump were to be reelected, an equal 19 percent said they would be angry.

Meanwhile, 34 percent said they would feel relived by a Trump victory, while 26 percent of Cuban-American voters said they would feel disappointed.

For comparison, only 10 percent of Cuban voters said they would feel excited if Biden was elected, and 12 percent said they would feel angry. Meanwhile, 34 percent would feel relieved, and 41 percent said they would feel disappointed if Biden were to win the presidential seat.

Cuba Sanctions

Meanwhile, Trump earlier announced that U.S. travelers will not be allowed to bring home Cuban cigars and rum or stay in government-owned hotels.

The action came after Trump sought to boost his appeal among Cuban-American voters.

Trump made the announcement as he considered choosing a Cuban-American woman from Florida for the Supreme Court vacancy.

Trump said the new Treasury Department will ensure that U.S. dollars do not fund the Cuban government.

He has been making efforts for the past four years to reinstall an economic blockade of Cuba and reverse Obama's strategy of restoring diplomatic relations with Caribbean island.
