WASHINGTON: Businessman Elon Musk has strongly criticized the delay in the US presidential election results from California. The official results from California are yet to be released even after 19 days of the US election. Musk's criticism was made by pointing out that India counted millions of votes in a single day in the Lok Sabha elections.

Musk's criticism was made by sharing a media report on 'How India counted 640 million votes in a single day'. Musk tweeted, 'India counted 640 million votes in a single day, California is still counting'. Reports indicate that 98 percent of the votes have been counted in California.



The Associated Press has declared Kamala Harris the winner. Kamala got 58.6 percent of the votes in California.

Donald Trump got 38.2 percent of the votes. California is the most populous state in the US with 39 million residents.

The election is mainly conducted by mail, which means there is a delay in counting the votes. Voters have time until December 1 to correct any mistakes they made while voting. Although the results from California are yet to be announced, Trump has been elected as the next president of the United States.

He won the 270 electoral votes needed to win. Trump has won 280 electoral votes so far. Trump is returning to the White House after four years.

He came close to winning the last election, but lost to Joe Biden. With his return to power, Trump will become the first person to become president of the United States in 127 years, not consecutively..
