Below are the complete results for national, state, and county races in the Aug. 28 primary. Other than the Miami Beach and Miami referenda, we didn’t include individual cities’ election results.
A decent 21.14 percent of Miami-Dade County’s registered voters voted in the Aug. 28 election. That was the highest turnout in a primary election in 10 years, although at 20.48%, the 2016 primary came very, very close.
A couple things to know:
- We entered these results with more than 95 percent of precincts reporting. There may be very slight discrepancies between the numbers below and the final results.
- We rounded to the nearest whole number for percentage of the vote. Because we didn’t want to give you (or us) a massive headache and no one was within a percentage point of another person.
- If we only include one party in a state-level race, that’s because there was no primary election for the other party. Either the other party only had one candidate, or it had no candidate at all, meaning that whoever wins the Aug. 28 race wins the seat.
Now, here are the results.
