Saturday Was the Last Day to Vote Early In Florida
On the last day of early voting in Florida, eager voters, many with chairs and other provisions, lined up for hour-long waits at voting locations throughout South Florida. Very long wait times during early voting are one of the issues concerning leaders from organizations including the Florida Democratic Party and the League of Women Voters, both of which unsuccessfully asked Gov. Rick Scott to extend early voting one more day. Roberto Montoya, who waited two hours Friday, told NBC 6 South Florida that there was "nothing you can really do" if you want to vote.
This year there are 2.52 million registered voters in Miami-Dade, Broward and Monroe counties.
On Election Day, voters can walk into their polling places and cast their ballots. Polls open at 7 a.m. and close at 7 p.m. in South Florida.
