Miami, Oct 20 (TIWN) Florida, a key battleground US state, broke its record for in-person early voting for the November 3 presidential election, with at least 350,000 people casting their ballots.
Vote-by-mail in the state has already seen massive turnout, with more than 2.5 million ballots collected heading into the first day of early voting. That's more than 20 percent of the total voter turnout the Sunshine State saw in 2016. Monday's early voting saw long lines as voters showed up to cast their ballots, with some reportedly treated to pizza from singer Ariana Grande.
