Florida’s primary is Tuesday. The ballot’s last mile now matters

As of 2026-08-16 12:36 UTC, Florida’s activity portal listed 1.81 million voted-early and voted-by-mail records for Tuesday’s primary, while 853,693 provided mail ballots were listed as not yet returned; the final route now matters because county Sunday hours vary and a postmark does not satisfy the 7 p.m. receipt deadline.
