US Election 2016, CNN cameras caught Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump looking over his wife’s shoulder as she voted as if he needed to verify her ballot for some reason.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump was booed as he entered his polling place Tuesday morning and when he and his wife Melania voted, CNN caught him looking over his wife’s shoulder as she voted as if he needed to verify her ballot for some reason.
Melania Trump has kept a relatively low profile on the campaign trail after her speech at the Republican National Convention this summer drew criticism for copying parts from an address given by first lady Michelle Obama.
Trump’s wife made an appearance on his behalf last week, when she spoke of the need to combat cyber bullying. The speech was mocked by some who said Melania Trump should talk to her own husband about his Twitter account.

But she has stuck by her husband during the grueling and divisive campaign, including through allegations from a dozen women that he kissed or groped them without their permission.
The Election Day video, captured by CNN, quickly became fodder for jokes on social media, where many users retweeted the images to question whether Trump was making sure his wife was voting for him.
