Jimmy Carter Votes for Kamala Harris at 100

Former President Jimmy Carter, who recently turned 100, fulfilled his wish to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris, casting his ballot by mail in Georgia. His son, Chip Carter, confirmed that the ballot was dropped off at the courthouse, noting that his father had longed to vote for Harris despite being in hospice care since February 2023. This event coincided with a record-setting early voting period in Georgia, where nearly 329,000 ballots were cast on the first day. President Joe Biden praised Carter as a moral force in his birthday tribute, reflecting on Carter’s enduring legacy. Meanwhile, Carter's grandson emphasized the significance of Harris's candidacy for maintaining the promise of America, amid contrasting comments from Donald Trump about Carter's legacy. Trump's remarks on using military force against political opponents have reignited discussions among lawmakers regarding restrictions on presidential military authority.
