An Edit and an Explanation

Changed the title of the "Voters" column to "Total Votes Cast" in order to curb confusion. I'll explain the source of each column to avoid any further confusion.

"Total Votes Cast" is obtained by summing all the votes for all the Presidential candidates in a given county, as reported on the Florida Department of State's website here. "% Total Voters" is obtained by summing all the votes for all Presidential candidates in a given county and dividing by the sum of all the votes for all Presidential candidates for all counties. "Turnout" is obtained from the Florida Department of State's website here. "Turnout - Total Votes Cast" is obtained by subtracting the "Total Votes Cast" from "Turnout."

I created PDFs of these webpages in order to preserve the data on them should the Florida Department of State change their webpage. County election results are here and county turnout information is here.
