For the nation’s third-largest state, Florida has never been that politically relevant in Washington, D.C. It’s not crazy to argue that Missouri, Arkansas and Delaware have all had more access to the nation’s highest offices than Florida.

In the last week since winning the election, Trump has already named some of the positions, including the 'border czar' and chief of staff.

Analysts say Trump’s picks for high-profile positions like secretary of state and attorney general reflect a desire to tap into the success Republican politicians have had in Florida.
