Florida Young Republicans, part of the Young Republicans National Federation, opened a headquarters in Orlando. Orange County has more registered Democrats than Republicans.
The Young Republicans National Federation’s footprint grew this week with the opening of a state chapter’s headquarters in Orlando, Florida. The choice of office location was strategic as Republicans hope to flip the predominantly blue area red leading into the 2024 presidential election.
Huntley added that a voter registration analysis of Orange County from the last year provided data showing 10,000 voters registered as Republicans and only 2,000 registered Democrats. 'Things are shifting and when you see shifts in voter registration, it means there's energy, appetite and momentum in our direction,' Huntley said.
Ludwig and Huntley, among others, worked tirelessly to open a central space dedicated to campaigning, dividing and conquering as a mutual effort with the county’s GOP, in order to capitalize on the momentum of new Republican constituents. 'Orlando is the blue dot across a state that is turning red,' Ludwig said. The Young Republicans' mission is to recruit, train and elect the next generation of Republicans across the country.
Young people, who are my age, are stuck renting, and they don't know if they're going to be able to buy a house,' Ludwig said. 'There are other issues, too, but that's the one that we consistently hear the most.' While the new Florida headquarters will be dedicated to driving awareness around the area and across the state, Ludwig said Orlando, as an international port of call, holds promise to broadcast organizational awareness outside the state, too.
