Trump casts early ballot as Republicans fight to retain Congress
WEST PALM BEACH: US President Donald Trump on Saturday voted early in his home state of Florida for the Nov 3 midterm elections, in which his Republican Party is battling to maintain control of Congress.
On Saturday, US President Donald Trump cast his early ballot in Florida for the upcoming November 3 midterm elections, while his party is striving to retain control of Congress. Trump and his wife Melania completed their voting before the president proceeded to a campaign rally in Georgia. The president stated that he voted along party lines, supporting only Republican candidates.
When questioned about corruption as a significant concern among voters, Trump asserted that corruption was prevalent in Democratic-controlled districts and cities, maintaining that it was "Democrat corruption." The Trump family business, which has been under scrutiny since the president's return to the White House, could face congressional investigations if the party loses control of the House and Senate.
With roughly ten days remaining until the elections, Trump is facing unfavorable polls, indicating a possibility of the Republicans losing their majority in both chambers.
