In Florida, youโre out of luckMany people in Florida opted in for early voting, possibly to skip the long lines on primary day or for a whole slew of other reasons.

And anyone who votes for that person will have his or her vote count -- as in, a vote for that candidate. Many states follow this same rule, but there are a few places that will let you have a re-do if your candidate dropped out before the primary. As you can see from this primary alone, many candidates drop out right before or directly after the juggernaut primary day.
