Trump says he voted to re-elect Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in the midterm elections

• Trump said on Tuesday that he voted to re-elect Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
• "No matter who you vote for, you have to vote," Trump told people outside a Palm Beach polling site.

Former President Donald Trump headed to the polls for Tuesday's midterm elections and said he voted to re-elect Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

When asked whether he voted for DeSantis after he cast his vote at the Morton and Barbara Mandel Recreation Center in Palm Beach, Florida, Trump replied: "Yes, I did," according to a video shared on Twitter.

Former first lady Melania Trump was alongside him.

"No matter who you vote for, you have to vote," Trump told reporters gathered outside the polling site.

DeSantis is running against Democrat Charlie Crist in the race for governor in the Sunshine State.

Speculation that Trump and DeSantis could both declare campaigns to be the Republican presidential nominee in 2024 has also ramped up in recent weeks.

At an Ohio campaign event on Monday, Trump once again teased a possible 2024 bid for the White House and added that he has a "big announcement" planned for November 15 at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

"I think Tuesday will be a very exciting day for a lot of people, and I look forward to seeing you at Mar-a-Lago," Trump said after casting his vote for DeSantis.

When asked whether he is planning to again run for president and why, Trump said, "The country has gotten very bad. It's lost its way. It's lost its confidence."
