Story summary

On October 24, President Donald Trump cast his ballot early in Florida's midterm elections, voting exclusively for Republican candidates and criticizing corruption as an issue primarily affecting Democratic-controlled areas. Trump and his wife, Melania Trump, voted together at the Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections office in West Palm Beach, despite past criticism from Trump over early voting methods he had previously decried as insecure. Speaking to reporters after casting his vote, Trump reiterated false claims of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election and defended controversial political actions by his allies. The president’s move comes amid polls suggesting that Republicans face a challenging race to maintain control of Congress in the upcoming midterms on November 3.
