Trump Reportedly Casts Mail-In Ballot in Florida Primary

Donald Trump reportedly voted by mail in Florida's Republican primary, despite having previously criticised mail-in voting and signed an executive order restricting its use.

  • Donald Trump reportedly voted by mail in Florida's Republican primary.
  • The White House confirmed the president's mail-in vote.
  • In March, President Trump signed an executive order restricting the use of mail-in ballots.

Donald Trump reportedly cast a mail-in ballot in Florida's Republican primary, according to Politico, which cited Palm Beach county voting records. The White House later confirmed the president's mail-in vote, as reported by the New York Times.

This marks at least the third time President Trump has voted by mail. He previously voted by mail in 2020 and in a statehouse special election earlier this year, mailing his ballot on 13 August last week.

In March, President Trump signed an executive order to restrict the use of mail-in ballots ahead of the November midterm elections. He has repeatedly criticised mail-in voting, calling for restrictions and making false claims about the security of the process and the outcome of the 2020 election.

A federal judge has blocked part of the executive order's implementation, though the Trump administration has asked the Supreme Court to intervene.
