“I am anticipating in-person turnout will be lower than usual, but I am expecting the turnout overall to be a little bit higher than usual, primarily attributable to the local elections, which are hotly contested,” said Broward’s Supervisor of Elections Peter Antonacci.
While COVID-19 is still a threat in the state, especially in South Florida- still ground zero, safety protocols have been established for all election workers to protect themselves and residents.
