MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — Several Colombian voting precincts were open in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties on Sunday.

South Florida is home to some of the largest voting centers for Colombians living abroad.

Hundreds were seen at Miami Dade College’s Kendall campus, which was one of many polling locations that included Hialeah, Weston, Coral Springs and Coral Gables, where some people lined up as early as 5 a.m.

Sunday could be the day Colombian voters decide who will become their next president, but this election is also about the future direction of the country.

Voters are weighing major issues including security, economic policy, and how the government should handle negotiations with guerrilla and other armed groups.

There are 14 different candidates offering different platforms for the country.

According to recent polls in Colombia, there is a strong possibility the election could head to a second-round runoff later this month.

That would happen if no candidate receives more than 50% of the ballots cast.

Polls in South Florida close at 4 p.m.
