President Donald Trump has cast another mail ballot in Florida as he continues to publicly bash the voting method as a source of fraud and push Congress to curtail the practice. Democratic leader Chuck Schumer criticized the president as hypocritical in response. Palm Beach County voter records show the president voted by mail in a Tuesday special election for state legislative seats and that his ballot has been counted. Early voting in the contest ran through Sunday, when Trump was still at his south Florida estate. The White House said Trump's focus is on states with universal mail voting, not on individual voters who need accommodations. Still, Trump has made sweeping claims that mail ballots are susceptible to widespread fraud.
