A woman in labor has insisted on stopping off to vote before being taken to hospital to give birth in Florida.
The unidentified mother-to-be and her husband were on their way to the hospital when they made an emergency dash into the Orange County Supervisor of Elections Office in Orlando, CBS Miami reports.
Karen Briceño González, who works in the voter service department, was confused when a man approached her and asked for two vote-by-mail ballots on October 27.

"I was helping at the counter with the voters for early voting and I got a gentleman handing me two driver's licenses," she told CNN.
Karen explained to the man that his wife would need to come into the office with him in order to receive her vote-by-mail ballot.
When he explained that she was sitting in a car outside, moments from giving birth, she was stunned.
"I have not seen anything like this before, but our job is to make sure that every eligible voter votes," Karen added. "No matter the circumstances, we're going to ensure that they vote even if it's someone in labor in a car."
Karen then immediately printed off two vote-by-mail ballots and ran out to the car.
There, she was able to verify the woman's identity and hand her a ballot.
Despite being in labor, the female was perfectly "calm" as she cast her vote and refused to go to the hospital until she had done so.
"She just thanked me and was like, 'Oh my gosh, thank you for making it so easy,'" Karen continued. "It wasn't a lot of conversation. I think she was concentrating on herself."
Before the woman left for the hospital, Karen proudly handed her an I voted sticker.
She then noticed a little girl in the back of the car with the couple and happily gave her one of the stickers too.
Orange County Supervisor of Elections Office spokeswoman Danaë Rivera-Marasco confirmed that the office hasn't been in touch with the woman since.
However, the whole team wished her well in a statement, which read: "She has not been identified – but we hope she and baby are doing great!"
