Good news for Florida voters:
From Local 10:
Gov. Charlie Crist signed an executive order today, extending the hours for early voting during the current general election.
"I have spoken with the Secretary of State and members of the Florida Legislature and have concluded that it is always the right thing to do to give voters every opportunity to cast a ballot," Crist said. "I have a responsibility to the voters of our state to ensure that the maximum number of citizens can participate in the electoral process, and that every person can exercise the right to vote."
Effective immediately, early voting sites will be open from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., through Friday, Oct. 31, 2008, and for a total of 12 hours between 7:00 a.m. on Sat., Nov. 1, and 7:00 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 2, 2008.
Emphasis mine. Now get out and vote!
