This story sheds a lot of light on what's going on in Florida while at the same time confusing the situation even more. I thought it especially interesting that 21% of the electorate that has voted early did not vote in 2012. Is this the silent white vote for Trump or a Latino vote for Hillary? I could not care less about tomorrow's result but I am especially interested to see who voted. Both parties will re-align following this election to account for its new voters and it will be fascinating to see how that occurs.

ETA: also thought this stat was revealing. The Latino vote I have always believed is not as monolithic as some seem to believe.
About 41 percent of the Hispanics who have so far voted are registered as Democrats, and 29 percent as Republicans, Smith’s data showed. Twenty-eight percent are independents.
