‘640 million votes counted in a day’: Elon Musk praises India’s lightning-fast elections, mocks California’s ‘still counting’ saga

Elon Musk has drawn attention to the efficiency of India’s election system, contrasting it with California's prolonged vote-counting process in the US Presidential Election 2024. Musk praised India for counting 640 million votes in a single day, while California continues to tally ballots nearly three weeks after polling. The delays in California stem from its reliance on mail-in voting, requiring laborious validation. Musk’s remarks sparked debate on the contrasting approaches to elections and vote counting in the US and India.
