IndiaTimes Tuesday, 26 November 2024 ()
Following a dismal performance in the recent polls, Uddhav Thackeray met with defeated Shiv Sena (UBT) candidates. He instructed them to apply to the Election Commission for verification of EVM-VVPAT units. Many candidates attributed their losses to EVMs and suggested a joint protest with MVA allies against their use, citing a Supreme Court order mandating verification upon candidate request.

Elon Musk Lauds India’s Fast Vote Counting, Slams California’s Slow Election Results in Fiery X Post

Elon Musk took to X (formerly Twitter) to praise India's efficient and swift vote-counting process, contrasting it with the delays faced by California in finalising its election results. In his post, Musk highlighted how India, with its electronic voting machines (EVMs) and voter verifiable paper audit trails (VVPATs), was able to count a staggering 640 million votes in a single day during the recent elections. This stands in stark contrast to California, which has been struggling to count votes nearly 20 days after the election, largely due to complicated mail-in ballot procedures and decentralised local election systems. Musk emphasised the scalability and efficiency of India's centralised election oversight, led by the Election Commission, while criticising the slow and cumbersome system in California. His comments have sparked debate on the effectiveness of different electoral systems, with many praising India's handling of large-scale elections. #ElonMusk #IndiaElections #VoteCounting #EfficientElections #CaliforniaElections #ElectionSystem #VoterIntegrity #ElectionReform #IndianElectionModel #FastCounting #EVMS #VVPAT #USVsIndia #ElectionDelays #MuskOnElections ~HT.178~PR.320~ED.103~GR.124~
