As the day has progressed, voters Local 10 News’ Sanela Sabovic spoke with on their way out of the building said that the whole process took them about 10 minutes.

Many said the issues that they voted on, what is most important to them, ranged from women’s rights to immigration to the economy.

At Plantation Central Park, some sporadic rain didn’t stop voters from showing up and casting their ballots.
