Saturday is the last day Floridians can early vote ahead of the November 4th general election. With just days left, an ad is now circulating with Leon County election supervisor Ion Sancho encouraging citizens to vote early.

The goal of Sancho’s TV and digital ad is to encourage registered Leon County residents to get out the vote. He first touts the seven early voting locations that are available. Then, he outlines what’s at stake.

So far, more than 2.4 million Floridians have voted early. That's as of Thursday morning.

As of 6 Thursday evening, 38,810 people voted in Leon County either by early voting, provisional, or absentee ballots. Voters can no longer request an absentee ballot. After Saturday, remaining voters can vote Tuesday, Election Day.
