FLORIDA — The 2020 election, conducted amid a deadly pandemic in an atmosphere of intense political polarization, was one of the most memorable in American history.
More than 150 million Americans voted — the most ever — and the turnout percentage was the highest in a century. And while the campaign itself was hard-fought, from the presidential level on down, the voting process itself was the subject of controversy, largely over the safety and reliability of mail-in voting.
Patch wants to know about your participation in this vital process of American democracy: Did you vote by mail or in person? How you believe the process went, not just for you but for the country in general?
Florida election officials said more than 11 million Floridians cast ballotsin this general election, for a turnout rate of 77 percent. Slightly more than 1.5 million more votes were cast in the state in this election compared with the Trump vs. Hillary Clinton presidential race four years ago. This year's turnout was the highest in 28 years for Florida.
