Fact check: Trump's voting record
By: CNN's Nina Golgowski
NEW YORK (CNN) – Donald Trump's affirmation that he's voted in every general election disagrees with actual voting records, according to a spokeswoman with the New York City Board of Elections.
“I voted in every general election,” Trump told CNN affiliate NY1 by phone Friday.
“I have records that I voted and so does the Board of Elections. … I signed in at every election.”However, voting records obtained by the board of elections show that
Trump did not vote in the 2002 general election, according to Valerie L. Vazquez, director of communications at the board.

Vazquez said she was able to obtain the voting records using both Trump’s voting bus cards, used prior to 1992 to document a voter’s activity, as well as through the BOE's electronic records database, used from 1992 to the present. Both the bus cards and electronic records provide the ballot time and whether it was cast on site or by absentee vote.
Records also showed Trump has changed his party registration three times over the past 20 years.http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2011/04/22/fact-check-trump-skipped-three-presidential-primary-votes/#more-156269
