Default Who's voting today?

I wonder how many people will stay away because of you know what. I would guess that the Republican turnout will be very low as the results are pretty much decided and a vote would only be symbolical.

I wonder how strong the feelings are of the Sanders and Biden voters.

There's more than one way to vote. I did my vote several days ago and it was received at the Supervisor of Election's office on 8 March. No need to stand in a line, covid or not. It was easy, it's secure, recommend the procedure to all; not like some states - you don't need a doctor's note to tell the SOE why you need to vote "absentee" or early as we call it here.

Early voting at Mulberry last week. When walked in, checked in, marked our ballots and left. We were the only ones there.

The amazing thing about primaries in Fl, is approx 30% of all voters have zero party affiliation-this means you have no say who the candidates in the general election will be--this IMHO is dumb beyond belief

Mail, mail, and only mail. I don't understand why anyone would want to go to their polling place when you can do it at home, been doing it since it was started in Ohio and now in Florida.

Many of us are unaffiliated on purpose. Some of us are against ALL political parties. However - I did "declare" last month just so I could vote in the primary this morning. I will un-declare before the General election in November.

I feel dirty. But it had to be done.

I voted yesterday and was #52 at 2:02 at Laurel Manor and was the only one inside voting at the time. No line, no wait, short ballot. God bless the seniors working yesterday. Very cautious and so nice and kind.
