The Broward County Supervisor of Elections Office says polls were open today from 7 in the morning to 7 in the evening, and that voters in line by 7 in the evening will be permitted to vote. Unofficial results will post at BrowardVotes.gov at 7 in the evening. Turning to the state picture, the Florida Division of Elections file is the official election-night feed. That file and its republishers show early and mail ballots are usually posted first, so a county can show votes before precincts report. And across Broward County, FundVoter republishes the Florida Division of Elections county file for Broward. Those are partial and unofficial state counts posted as of November 3 today. And statewide, Florida law requires polling places to be open from 7 in the morning to 7 in the evening on election day.
