The day before publicly opposing funding to accommodate an expected surge in Americans voting by mail in this year's presidential election, President Donald Trump requested a mail-in ballot to vote in Florida's upcoming primary.

The elections website for Palm Beach County, Fla., where Trump is registered to vote, shows that mail-in ballots were requested for the president and first lady Melania Trump on Wednesday. The news was first reported by USA Today.

The ballots, according to the county's supervisor of elections, would have to be picked up in person as the deadline has already passed for them to be mailed.
