From a local Tampa Bay news source:

http://www.baynews9.com/content/news/baynews9/news/article.html/content/news/articles/cfn/2012/11/7/florida_election_too.html

TALLAHASSEE -- Florida decided. But when will it be official?

Nearly 24 hours since the polls closed on Election Night, there is still no declared winner of Florida's 29 electoral votes.

President Barack Obama may not have needed Florida to win re-election, but we may not know if Florida went blue for Obama or red for Republican Mitt Romney until early next week.
