More than a million Florida voters have chosen a new governor, a full two weeks before Election Day.

And the first day of early voting in the state's largest, Democratic-leaning counties suggests a much stronger turnout in 2018 than in 2014.

In Miami-Dade, three times as many people voted on the first day of early voting as did four years ago. In Palm Beach County, about twice as many voted Monday as did four years ago.

Miami-Dade, the state's most populous county, received about 15,000 people at early voting sites Monday.

The turnout on the first day four years ago was 4,828, the county elections office said.

Miami-Dade reports 14,946 people voted early Monday. That's down about 80% from what it was on Day 1 for the presidential in 2016 (80,770) but tripled the last off-year Day 1 in 2014 (just 4,828) https://t.co/dOReWnVnru — Doug Hanks (@doug_hanks) October 23, 2018

On the first day of early voting, Democrats accounted for 44 percent of all ballots cast and Republicans 40 percent.
