2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forum2-to-1 registration advantage for Democrats among 440K new Hispanic voters in Florida - HuffPost
Voter registration data in Florida over the past three-plus years show a dramatic shift in the partisan identities of Sunshine State Hispanics. The data suggest a potential sea change in the partisan commitments of the fastest-growing voting block in what remains a pivotal swing state in presidential elections.
As of August 1, 2016, there are 2.1 million Hispanic registered voters in Florida, according to designation on voter registration forms. Among Hispanic voters, more than one in five are newly registered voters who were added to the voter rolls since the 2012 presidential election. Between January 1, 2013 and August 1, 2016, 441,508 Hispanics registered to vote and remain in the statewide voter file. And according to state records they are trending more heavily Democrat in 2016 voter registration than ever before.

South Florida Hispanics continue to be more Republican than Hispanics in the rest of the state and nation. But partisan attachments in Miami-Dade and other Florida counties with significant Hispanic populations indicate a significant shift away from the Republican Party. - HuffingtonPost

The voter registration deadline in PA is October 11, not October 7.
Here's a link to the PA online voter registration application for PA voters.
