JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Long wait times greeted some voters at polling locations during the last day of early voting.

Polls, in most counties, will be open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. If you are in line by 7 p.m. you are entitled to vote even though it may take you past the 7 o'clock hour to do so.

90 minute wait times were reported by the Duval County Supervisor of Elections Office at the Highlands Library, Regency Square Library, and University Park Library on Saturday morning. 

Over 3,500,000 votes have been cast by absentee or early voters across the state. Despite the heavy turnout, Florida Gov. Rick Scott rejected calls on Thursday to extend early voting.

If you miss out on voting on Saturday, the next and final time polling locations will be open will be on Tuesday, November 6th from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
