A Palm Beach resident gives rare insight into voting when living near presidential candidateʼs home. Anne Carrʼs experience shows unique perspective of casting ballot in luxury island community

In this years election season many Americans went to polling stations but one Palm Beach neighborhood had an un-usual voting experience. Living in the high-end barrier island community some residents found themselves making choices about a well-known neighbor: Donald Trump

Anne Carr who moved to this up-scale area during the covid times (when many folks re-located to Florida) discovered herself in a unique position; having to vote while living near Mar-a-Lago. The fancy neighborhood sits between two land-marks: the historic Breakers Resort and Trumps luxury club-residence

The barrier islands community which is known for its mega-mansions and palm-lined streets presents an interesting case of local politics. Some residents like Carr made their voting choices based on first-hand observations of their presidential candidate neighbor - she decided not to support the former president who lives down the street from her home
