Florida's Latino voters are casting 99 percent more votes than they did at this point in 2012, early voting figures indicate. The numbers, released by the Clinton campaign on Monday, show 133,000 early votes from Florida Latinos. The Clinton campaign has made Latino voters a focus in the swing state of Florida, encouraging the community to vote early.

The 133,000 early votes represent mail-in and absentee ballots.
