New Delhi: Tesla CEO Elon Musk has commended India's election process for its efficiency in counting 640 million votes in a single day. In a post on X, Musk compared this feat with California's delayed vote-counting process, stating, "India counted 640 million votes in 1 day. California is still counting votes."

The comment came in response to an X post featuring an article titled, "How India Counted 640 Million Votes in a Day," accompanied by the caption, "Meanwhile in India, where cheating isn’t the primary goal of their elections."

California, which had 16 million voters participating in its November 5 election, is still processing over 300,000 ballots after 18 days. Reports indicate that around 570,000 ballots remain uncounted statewide, with delays attributed to the labor-intensive validation of mail-in votes.
