Florida's Amendment three, formally known as HJR 1F, aims to reduce local property tax revenue by an estimated $45.84 billion over five years. Central Florida voters are deciding the measure today as they cast ballots in governor and U.S. Senate races. Turning to voting, polls in Central Florida open today from 7 in the morning, including Orange County mayor and three constitutional amendments; results are expected at 8 in the evening. And if you're voting today, polls close at 7 in the evening. It advises bringing an accepted ID and checking sample ballots online for local contests. Finally, the guide says polls are open today from 7 in the morning to 7 in the evening; anyone in line before seven will still be allowed to vote.
