Both Eric, 32, and Ivanka, 34, are registered to vote but are currently unaffiliated, according to public records. Because the Republican primary is closed to only registered GOP voters, the two will be unable to cast ballots for their father on April 19. “They were unaware of the rules and they didn’t register in time,” Trump said Monday. “So Eric and Ivanka, I guess, won’t be voting.” Trump told the anchors his kids feel “very guilty” about not being able to vote, but the candidate says he understands. Trump’s son Donald J. Trump Jr. is a registered Republican, records show. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4288516/donald-trump-new-york-republican-primary-ivanka/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4288516/donald-trump-new-york-republican-primary-ivanka/"},"headline":"Donald Trump's Kids Can't Vote for Him in New York","datePublished":"2016-04-11T14:44:46.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T16:37:32.111Z","description":"They missed a deadline to register as Republicans","url":"https://time.com/4288516/donald-trump-new-york-republican-primary-ivanka/","keywords":["Donald Trump"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltd0b002efd9253730/69888e84196cf424af03b1d2/520272878.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Maya Rhodan","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/maya-rhodan/"}],"articleSection":"Politics","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltd0b002efd9253730/69888e84196cf424af03b1d2/520272878.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"520272878","caption":"ROCHESTER, NEW YORK - APRIL 10: Presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks before a capacity crowd at a rally for his campaign on April 10, 2016 in Rochester, New York.
