WHO'S ON THE BALLOT?  Voter's guide

Duval County Elections Supervisor Jerry Hollands said turnout is typically low for primary. He expects about 20 percent of registered voters to cast ballots by the time polls close at 7 p.m. Tuesday.

Holland is said that even though turnout is expected to be low, his staff still prepares like they do for every election.
