An elderly man who fell ill while voting for the US Presidential election insisted on casting his vote as medics rushed to help him.

A voter - who used the Twitter name Hedi Lou Who - said she was waiting to vote for the historic election when the man fell ill with chest pain and breathing difficulties.

But instead of waiting calmly for help, the man still insisted on casting his ballot.

It comes as record numbers of Americans are voting - highlighting how serious many are taking this election and the decision between Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton.

Writing on Twitter, Heidi said: “Older man at polling place having chest pain & trouble breathing, insisted on casting his ballot as the ambulance was called.”

We need a million more Americans like him. Pray for him.

I'd wager money that's a Trump voter right there.

They say we are willing to crawl through 10 miles of broken glass through the center of hell to go vote for DT. While that's hyperbole, it looks like some of us are literally willing to finish casting our votes even if we're in the middle of having a heart attack.

I didn’t read the full story but I will bet anything he was voting for Trump...

He may have been headed out, but he was determined to get his money's worth. ":^)

On the-donald subreddit, someone posted that a poll watcher said a woman voter whose husband died this morning came and voted. I don’t know in which state it was.

Now that’s commitment!

If the husband votes later today, he will cancel her trump vote out.

With deference to the gentleman & hopes for his full recovery, had he been a Democrat his vote would’ve been counted anyway…
