Melania Trump put on a stylish show on Tuesday morning as she arrived in the swing state of Florida to cast her vote in the 2020 election, looking elegant in a $4,500 chain-print Gucci dress.  

The 50-year-old First Lady flashed a small smile at the cameras as she arrived at the polling station in the Trumps’ home state of Florida, one of several key swing states where her husband is hoping to hold victory against Democratic candidate Joe Biden.

However the final poll heading into election day showed that Biden, 77, held a narrow lead over Trump, 74, in six swing states, including Florida, as well as Arizona, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

In Arizona, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin – all of which Trump won in 2016 – Biden had the edge as of Monday night, however the poll showed the race as still being hotly contested, with the result hanging in the balance.

Wisconsin was the safest of the six, with Biden leading by 53 per cent and Trump claiming 45 per cent of support.

North Carolina was the narrowest of the six, with Biden generating a wafer-thin 49 per cent of support, and 47 per cent backing Trump.

Across all six the average was 50 per cent for Biden, and 46 per cent for Trump.

The Trumps’ home state of Florida was another incredibly close race, with the poll showing Biden leading by 51 per cent, while President Trump had 48 per cent of the support.

However Melania didn’t let that stop her from showing her support for her husband with an in-person trip to her local polling station at the Morton and Barbara Mandel Recreation Center, which is located just ten minutes’ drive from President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago golf club.

Melania paused to address reporters at the polling station, saying that she was feeling ‘great’, and explaining that she had chosen not to vote with her husband last week because she wanted to take part in the process on election day.

‘It’s Election Day, so I wanted to come here to vote today for the election,’ she said.

The President and his wife made the decision in late 2019 to change their official home state from Manhattan to Palm Beach, with the New York Times first reporting the news on October 31.
