“Florida has made it easy to vote. There’s no excuse for people not voting, other than they aren’t being constantly educated by the candidates”
said former Sen. Bob Graham, a Democrat.  - Gainesville Sun

“There is a race going on,” said Karen Thurman, the chairwoman of the Florida Democratic Party, who has been urging Floridians to defy the national party and vote. “And there will still be a headline: ‘So-and-so has won Florida.”

“We’ll be at the convention and our delegates will be seated,” said Florida Democratic Party Chairwoman Karen Thurman. “Their voices will be heard.” - The New York Times

Mark Bubriski, spokesman for the Florida Democratic Party, said the party was surprised with the strong turnout and estimates they could see as many as one million Democratic votes cast by the time primary day is over Tuesday — a quarter-million more than in the 2004 primary.

‘’This turnout is phenomenal,'’ Bubriski said. - Miami Herald

Dear Florida Democrats:

Today is election day. We at the Pasco Democratic Party have been fielding phone calls for days from registered voters asking if their vote will count.

We wanted to send this email out to everyone to say

“YES” - your vote counts!

Please go to the polls (if you haven’t already), and VOTE TODAY.

Every registered Democrat in Florida will have a say about the next United States Presidential Nominee.

We are posting this information here, but there are so many people we still can’t get to.

We would like to ask a favor - Please send this message out to everyone you know and urge them to vote today.

Florida is setting records this Primary. We have already had a higher turnout than Iowa, New Hampshire and Nevada COMBINED! **Voter turnout is expected to hit 1,000,000**(Florida Democratic Party)

The only time your vote doesn’t count, is when you don’t cast one - Today, your vote will count.

Below are the early vote numbers for the state of Florida - we are making history - Vote.
