Flash floods in several Florida counties have forced changes to voting locations, disrupting the electoral process. Polls are set to close at 23:00 GMT, with first results expected Tuesday. Final outcomes may take days due to logistical challenges.
Officials confirmed that heavy rainfall caused flooding in key areas, making some polling stations inaccessible. As a result, voters were redirected to alternative sites, some of which had to be temporarily set up in parking lots or community centers. The shift has raised concerns about voter turnout and accessibility.
This is the second time this year that extreme weather has impacted elections in Florida. Last month, a severe storm caused similar disruptions in Miami-Dade County. Election authorities are working to ensure all votes are counted, but the delay in final results has sparked discussions about the need for more resilient infrastructure.
