Unarmed security guards patrolling early-voting locations in Palm Beach County
PALM BEACH COUNTY, Fla. October 29 2018 – Voters heading to the polls in Palm Beach County may notice unarmed security guards patrolling each of the 14 early-voting locations.
The supervisor of elections says every election cycle they have a contract with a security firm.

Also, at the Jupiter Community Center, which is an early-voting site, the Jupiter police station is right next door.
