– With 10 days to go until Election Day, Donald Trump voted in his adopted home of Florida on Saturday, joining more than 56 million Americans who have cast early ballots at a record-setting pace. Trump cast his ballot at a library in West Palm Beach, near his Mar-a-Lago resort, after switching his permanent residence and voter registration last year from New York to Florida, a must-win battleground for his re-election bid. In New York state, voters jammed polling places and stood in line for hours to cast ballots on the state’s first day of early voting. Long lines formed before polls opened across New York City and Long Island, videos on social media showed. With 10 days to go in the campaign, the pace of early voting could lead to the highest voter turnout rate in more than a century, according to data from the US Elections Project. Trump has regularly condemned mail-in voting without evidence as prone to fraud, even though experts say it is as safe as any other method. The large number of early voters is a sign of the intense interest in this year’s election, as well as concerns about avoiding crowded polling places on Election Day and reducing the risk of exposure to the coronavirus. “We don’t do things like those chumps out there with the microphone are doing. The Trump guys. It’s about decency,” Trump said during a rally in North Carolina, per Reuters.
