Click title for link to a short blurb in the Palm Beach Post this morning.
Monday’s first day of early voting in Palm Beach County drew 5,317 voters.
That’s a 32.5 percent increase over the first day of early voting in 2010, the last non-presidential election year, when 4,011 voters showed up in Palm Beach County.
Since Palm Beach County is a Democratic stronghold, the big increase is probably good news for Democrat Charlie Crist‘s bid to unseat Republican Gov. Rick Scott. The busiest early voting site was the Hagen Ranch Road Library, which is in the deep-blue south county.
