After months of campaigning, the Republican president and vice president candidates cast their votes Tuesday morning. Former President Donald Trump has cast his ballot in Palm Beach, Florida and says his latest presidential campaign was the best yet.

I think it was maybe the best of the three. We did great in the first one. We did much better in the second one but something happened. I would say this is the best campaign we’ve run,” he said, standing next to his wife, Melania Trump. “It seems that the conservatives are voting very powerfully,” Trump told reporters in Palm Beach, Florida. “It looks like Republicans have shown up in force,” he said. Trump is suggesting he won’t challenge the results of the election — as long as it’s fair. “If it’s a fair election, I’d be the first one to acknowledge,” the results, Trump said, though what meets that definition wasn’t clear. Speaking to reporters after voting in Florida, Trump said that he had no plans to tell his supporters to refrain from violence should he lose. “I don’t have to tell them,” because they “are not violent people,” he said. While talking with reporters, Trump refuses to say how he voted on Florida’s abortion ballot measure. Asked about the measure, which would keep the state’s six-week restriction in place, he avoided answering by simply saying he’d done “a great job bringing it back to the states.” The second time, he snapped at a reporter, saying: “You should stop talking about it.” Trump had previously indicated he would back the measure, but then changed his mind, saying he would vote against it. The abortion measure would prevent lawmakers from passing any law that penalizes, prohibits, delays or restricts abortion until fetal viability, which doctors say is sometime after 21 weeks. If it’s rejected, the state’s current abortion law would stand. Asked if he had any regrets about his campaign, Trump responded, “I can’t think of any.” Trump planned to visit a nearby campaign office to thank those working on his behalf. Republican Vice Presidential candidate JD Vance voted in Cincinnati this morning. “Look, I feel good. You never know until you know, but I feel good about this race,” Vance said after he and his wife cast their ballots. Vance said he would depart for Palm Beach, Florida, later Tuesday to be with Trump as results come in. Republican vice presidential nominee Sen.
