Gaffe-prone Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has made another slip, asking his supporters in Florida to go out and vote on 28 November – 20 days after the actual election date.
At a rally in Panama City, Florida, Trump urged his supporters to make sure they are registered to vote by the state's registration deadline and told them to go out and vote on 28 November.
“There's never been anything like this, so go and register, make sure you get out and vote 28 November,” the Republican nominee was quoted as saying by media reports.
Trump's misstatement came just after he was telling the crowd that the voter registration deadline in Florida was extended due to Hurricane Matthew.
While voters in Florida were allowed more time to make sure they would be able to vote in the general election, the deadline to cast their actual ballots is pretty strict – 8 November.
