BY THE NUMBERS:

ELECTION SECURITY FUNDS IN FLORIDA

All of Florida's counties shared $19.2 million in federal funding to help safeguard their election systems ahead of the 2018 midterms. But many of the counties say they did not get enough time to properly spend the money. Many counties returned 20 percent or more of the money to the government.


On the map below, hover over the county to find out how much it got, and how much was returned.
