A 93-year-old Texas veteran voted for the first time in his life this year and wants others to do the same, according to a Texas ABC affiliate.
Roy Hale of Kempner, Texas said that he had never made the time to cast his ballot and felt this year was the one to break his trend of not voting.
"I was a Democrat but I never voted for one. I've never voted in my life until this time and I voted for Donald Trump," Hale told local station KXXV.
Hale said he had seen developments that did not make him want to be a Democratic supporter any longer. The example he used was the Obamacare provision that forced every citizen to have insurance.
"It's never been that way before. I don't know of any other president that's ever said you'd be fined if you didn't buy something," he said.
Hale hopes that his vote will help put Trump in the White House.
"I just think Donald Trump will turn things around if they get him in there," Hale said.
