From Escambia County Supervisor of Elections office, here are the early votes by district. If the intent of reducing the days for early voting was to stifle the African-American vote, it looks like the Republican-controlled Florida Legislature was successful. District 3 is a primarily an African-American district (54 percent of the voters are African-American) and only 725 voters in the district used early voting. We will get the full demographic breakdown after tomorrow’s vote.
DIST 1 – 990
DIST 2 – 1,153
DIST 3 – 725
DIST 4 – 2,243
DIST 5 – 1,574
