Plains (Georgia): Former US President Jimmy Carter on Wednesday cast his vote for Kamala Harris in the US presidential election. Jimmy Carter, who celebrated his 100th birthday on October 1, currently lives in a home in Plains, Georgia. All facilities like hospitals for them have been established by the federal government of America.

His son Chip Carter told reporters that his health had deteriorated two months ago. Then I asked him, do you want to live for 100 years? Then he said, no, I want to live to vote for Kamala Harris.

In a brief statement, the Carter Center said it had nothing else to say beyond his statement.

Earlier on Tuesday, about 4,60,000 voters cast their votes directly or indirectly. Those who voted indirectly had their votes cast by Wednesday afternoon, said Bra Refn Spanger, an official. Another official, Robert Seegers, said Georgia's election rules allow a voter to be counted even if a voter dies after voting. Given this, when the election results are declared on November 5, the vote of former President Jimmy Carter will also be counted.
