A near-real-time Florida Division of Elections tally shows 464,062 ballots cast in Broward County as of November 3. That includes 314,117 early in-person ballots and 149,945 mail ballots. Turning to polling operations, Broward officials say severe flooding made Paradise Village Clubhouse in Davie unusable Tuesday and voters for Precinct T 18 were sent to Tree Tops Park, Precinct T 13. The county posted the change and directed voters to new site. In related voting news, county officials reported a systemwide issue affecting polling sites for 10 to 15 minutes. Officials say the problem was fixed and voting resumed. Elsewhere, officials moved more than 20 polling places after flooding disrupted voting. State reporting lists Broward among eight counties.
