Who the hell makes appointments to vote? Broward, which had not initially followed suit, said early Sunday afternoon it would also try to accommodate voters — but they will have to wait until voters who made appointments cast their ballots first. Mary Cooney, a department spokeswoman, told The Miami Herald early Sunday afternoon that the department will try to accommodate voters who show up at a Lauderhill satellite office located at 1501 NW 40th Ave. (N. State Rd. 7/441). They will have to wait, however, behind around 100 voters who had called before Sunday to set up an appointment to pick up and fill out absentee ballots in person. Broward is accepting new appointment requests for Monday at 954-712-1964 and 954-712-1974. And both the satellite office and the Fort Lauderdale main office, located at 115 S. Andrews Ave., Room 103, will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday to accept completed absentee ballots from voters who had already received them. Read more here: miamiherald.com
