To accommodate an influx of Puerto Ricans, an Obama-appointed federal judge has ruled that nearly half of Florida's 67 counties must provide ballots, voting materials, advertisement and marketing in Spanish by the 2020 presidential primary election.
The Tallahassee-based judge, Mark Walker, also ordered the 32 counties to provide a toll-free Spanish-language hotline, a Spanish-English election term glossary, "readily accessible" Spanish websites and Spanish-speaking helpers at polling places.
