The first weekend of early voting being available in every Florida county pushed the number of votes cast for the Nov. 3 election towards 2.8 million, more than 20 percent of the turnout in the prior midterm election in 2022.
While most counties started offering the in-person option at the start of last week, it is mandatory for all 67 counties from Saturday until Oct. 31.
