TAMPA, Fla. – Republicans put Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin delegates front and center at the Tampa Bay Times Forum in a nod to the vital Midwest battleground states.

But those seating arrangements stand to change drastically in just a few cycles.

A burgeoning Hispanic population, plus the migration of black voters to the South, will start to alter battleground states by 2020. The result will be dramatic changes to the electoral map in just a couple of decades.

“A decade from now, I think you’ll see Arizona, Texas, Georgia for sure,” said William Frey, a demographics expert at the Brookings Institution. “You have got to look at the South and West – those are the fast-growing parts of the country – and that’s where the minorities are dominating the growth.”

Georgia has been a reliable Republican state for most of the past three decades. All the while, the Peach State’s population increased, and now Georgia has 16 electoral votes.
