Trump won't say how he voted on Florida abortion issue: 'Stop talking about it'
After voting in his home state of Florida, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump refused to say how he voted on the state’s abortion measure.
Trump voted in Palm Beach, Florida, Tuesday near his Mar-a-Lago club, and said afterward that he was feeling "very confident."
The former president was then asked twice about how he voted on Florida’s Amendment 4.
If approved, the measure would prevent state lawmakers from passing any law that penalizes, prohibits, delays or restricts abortion until fetal viability. If it’s rejected, the state’s restrictive six-week abortion law would stand.
The first time he was asked, Trump avoided answering, according to The Associated Press. He said instead of the issue that he did "a great job bringing it back to the states," referencing his Supreme Court picks that helped overturn Roe v. Wade in 2022.
When asked a second time, Trump told the reporter, "you should stop talking about it."

Trump had previously indicated that he would support the measure — but then changed his mind and said he would vote against it.

How did Kamala Harris vote?
Over the weekend, in a similar nature, Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris wouldn’t say how she voted on a key ballot measure in her home state of California that would reverse criminal justice reforms approved in recent years.
The initiative, if passed, would make the crime of shoplifting a felony for repeat offenders and increase penalties for some drug charges, including those involving the synthetic opioid fentanyl. It also would give judges the authority to order people with multiple drug charges to get treatment.
Harris said she wouldn’t be saying how she voted because she didn’t intend to "create an endorsement one way or another around it."
