Voters in Miami-Dade County and across the U.S. headed to the polls on Tuesday, Nov. 5 to cast their ballots in the General Election.

At the top of the ballot will be the presidential race between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.
Florida law requires each county to report its early and absentee ballots first. That includes mail-in ballots, which lean heavily Democratic.
Over the past two election cycles, Democrats have tended to vote by mail more than Republicans. That means the first results reported often look stronger for Democratic candidates than the eventual outcome. Then, as the votes cast on Election Day trickle in, Republicans start seeing much more favorable results.
In addition to the presidential race, voters made important decisions on Florida amendments, including whether to legalize recreational marijuana and whether to remove the government’s ability to block or delay the decision to end a pregnancy before the fetus is “viable” and/or to protect the life of the mother. Both amendments failed Tuesday.
In Miami-Dade County, voters selected a sheriff for the first time since the 1960′s -- Rosie Cordero-Stutz.
There were also several U.S. congressional seats that were voted on, as well as state congressional seats.
Mayoral races were also held in some cities, including Doral, Medley, North Miami, North Miami Beach and South Miami.
