US President Donald Trump cast his ballot for the midterm elections in Palm Beach on Saturday, opting to vote early in his adopted home state of Florida. At rallies ahead of Election Day on November 3, Trump has been urging Republicans to cast their ballots early, reversing course on a practice he has long decried in a bid to mobilise the party’s base in an election that threatens to end their control of Congress. Asked by reporters if he voted for the party line, he said: “Very much so.”The president has regularly questioned the security of early voting methods, claiming without evidence that mail-in ballots, drop boxes and other practices during the 2020 presidential election – which he lost – were used to rig the vote.
