Barron Trump Casts First-Ever Ballot at 18
Proud Mom Melania Shares Photo, Family Reunion at Mar-a-Lago
Barron Trump, the youngest son of former President Donald Trump, cast his first-ever ballot in the 2022 midterm elections on Tuesday. His mother, Melania Trump, proudly shared a photo of her son at the polling place on social media, writing, "So proud of my boy, Barron, for casting his first vote today! #ElectionDay."
Barron Voted in Palm Beach County
According to reports, Barron voted in Palm Beach County, Florida, where the Trump family has a residence at Mar-a-Lago. Barron turned 18 in March 2022, making him eligible to vote for the first time. In Florida, the deadline to register to vote was October 11th, 2022.
Barron's vote comes as no surprise, as his parents have been vocal supporters of the Republican Party. Donald Trump has repeatedly made false claims about the 2020 presidential election being stolen, and Melania Trump has echoed these claims on social media.
Family Reunion at Mar-a-Lago
In addition to Barron casting his first vote, the Trump family also held a reunion at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday. Donald and Melania Trump were joined by their other children, Ivanka Trump, Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump, and Tiffany Trump.
The family reunion comes amid reports that Donald Trump is considering announcing a run for president in 2024. If he does announce, it would be his third bid for the presidency.
Mixed Reactions to Barron's Vote
Reactions to Barron Trump casting his first vote have been mixed. Some people have praised him for exercising his right to vote, while others have criticized him for supporting his father's political views.
It is important to note that Barron is an adult and is free to make his own decisions about who to vote for. It is also important to respect the privacy of minors, including their political views.
