No wonder some call it FloriDUH.

Apopka polling places run out of Republican ballots

This seems to be a recurring problem in many primaries

True, but Floridians seem to squeal the loudest.

This is true - my precinct in Texas had to call in twice to ask for more ballots. They didn't wait to run out. No need to "run out", they can tell by the numbers that participation is higher than normal.

I heard on the radio that Dallas County started printing more ballots at 10am on primary day. What kind of incompetent idiot ever lets a polling station "run out"?

No worries, nobody is being "cheated" out of anything. What I can tell you is, in early voting (which lasted an entire 2 weeks, mind you) as well as in absentee ballots, there were more Republican voters than Democrats. Why wait until the last minute to vote, when you've got two whole weeks to do it (including Sundays) before election day?

For me, this time, I waited until the day of because I hadn't made my mind up before that.

Here in FL early voting is sometimes worse than Election Day.

Any guess if the Bushes are for Trump or Clinton (in their heart, not publicly)? (Jeb Bush in particular, who's the governor and had his way in the 2000 Gore/Bush chad episode)

Trump's name is being omitted from some Florida ballots? Sounds like great news for the Rubio campaign Reports: Trump Left Off Some Florida Ballots; "Dozens of Complaints" - The Gateway Pundit #marcomentum
