Bulwark Takes · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Supports. AP reports Palm Beach County voter records show Trump voted by mail in the March 2026 special election for state legislative seats, and that his ballot was counted.[1][6]
Supports. Reuters reports the White House defended Trump's ability to vote by mail after reports he cast his primary ballot by mail in Florida, and Politico cited Palm Beach County records showing a mail ballot returned Aug. 13.[2][4]
Supports. The White House spokeswoman confirmed Trump voted by mail in the Florida GOP primary, calling it a 'nonstory'.[5][7]
Supports. PolitiFact's 2022 fact-check found Trump cast mail ballots in 2020 Florida primaries, showing a longer pattern of mail voting.[3]
Context. Palm Beach County records for the August primary were shielded from public disclosure in some searches, so the record is confirmed by the White House and reporting rather than by a direct public lookup.[5][8]
