Elections officials anticipated a bigger than normal turnout for the midterm election, and they are preparing for the influx of voters at the 20 early voting sites around town.
Each site will be open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. from Aug. 8-Aug. 21.
There will also be drop boxes available at the early voting site, even though in the 2020 election they came under fire because of security concerns about who was keeping tabs on them.“We have drop boxes at every single early voting site. They will all be inside,” Duval County Supervisor of Elections Mike Hogan said. “Some may be in the polling room. Most are going to be out in the lobby area of the library or the building that we’re using.
Many will be watching this election closely, something Hogan and other election supervisors are well aware of.“We train them in activities that they may encounter. They know the drill,” Hogan said, although he recalled that in 2020, officers were assigned to his home. “The sheriff assigned three officers to come by my house, there was some chatter. And I never knew what the chatter was. But they stayed around for about a week during the voting cycle.
