During the early voting taking place in Florida these days, several supporters of the main Senate candidates, Rick Scott (Republican Party) and Debbie Mucarsel-Powell (Democratic Party), clashed outside a polling center, in an event that required police intervention.
Scott, who is seeking reelection with the Republican Party, organized an event in Kendall, in Miami-Dade County, reported Telemundo 51. However, a campaign bus from his political opponent arrived at the location, which created tension.
Mucarsel Powell walked just a few meters from where his opponent was, and things heated up a bit more, although there was no physical confrontation.
"On November 5, we are going to turn this state red. Trump will be our next president, and my opponent will fall," said Scott at the rally, one of the last before the elections on November 5.
For her part, the Democratic candidate criticized the actions of the attendees, indicating that they reflect similar stances to those in Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua, where censorship and repression prevail.
According to the television network, the line of people taking advantage of Sunday to exercise their right to vote remained steady throughout the weekend, which was the first with early voting in South Florida.
The numbers support those statements, as it has been reported that 2,250,914 voters have already cast their ballots early in Florida, with the majority registered as Republicans.
Regarding Cubans, a recent survey from Florida International University (FIU) indicates that 68% of likely Cuban-American voters in Miami-Dade will cast their votes for the Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
Only 23% of Cuban Americans residing in Miami-Dade intend to vote for Vice President and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, while 5% are undecided.
Among the highlighted predictions is the support that Senator Scott will receive, at 50%, compared to 19% for his opponent, the Democrat Mucarsel-Powell, in the Senate elections.
