Counties where VBM turnout already exceeds 60% of turnout in 2014, which is pretty significant given we’ve got two more weeks of counting to go.
60-70% - Lee, Manatee, Marion, Osceola, Pasco, Sarasota, Volusia
70%+ - Collier, Hernando, Indian River, St. Johns, Sumter
All solid red except Osceola (outskirts of Orlando suburbs) and Sarasota which votes purple in VBM. Blue county turnout:
Alachua 41%
Broward 41%
Leon 25% (caveat - hurricane)
Miami-Dade 39%
Orange 41%
Palm Beach 32%
Note Republicans currently have a 1k lead in Miami-Dade, which is not unprecedented (see 2014) but not a great sign for the Dems either.
GOP counties are overperforming. DEM underperforming. Slightly annoyed by Sarasota - much happier about Miami-Dade.
