OP
It's expected though. Trump told them to vote on election day and they followed.

I saw Nate Silver say the other day that Ds won FL early votes +6, Rs won election day +12 in 2016

Covid, anti-military remarks and infusion of east coasters may turn it BLUE.

I posted a few caution yesterday when people look at non-college white early voting number (down by a lot) and I said they are going to vote on election day because Trump told them to.

He's making statements based on ONE hour of voting, during the heaviest GOP voting time of the day.

(81,872 posts)5. There is some good info on that county here:
https://www.votepinellas.com/Election-Results/2016-Election-Results/Unofficial-Voter-Turnout-2016-General-Election
Republicans beat Democrats in early voting and in-person voting in 2016. Looks like early voting flipped for 2020.
That said, the election was very close between Hilary and Trump in that county. It is mostly a republican county in 2016.
https://enr.votepinellas.com/FL/Pinellas/64408/183835/en/summary.html
It had a 77% turnout in 2016.
https://enr.votepinellas.com/FL/Pinellas/64408/183835/en/vt.html
I don't know what registration is like, but it looks like Democrats did their job in early voting.
I heard someone say yesterday that extremely high turnout in FL could be a problem for Democrats. We'll see.
Obama won that county by 6 points with 73% turnout. https://enr.votepinellas.com/FL/Pinellas/43334/112818/en/summary.html
