California is still counting votes 🤦♂️ https://t.co/ai8JmWxas6
It must be mentioned that the Associated Press called the US Presidential election on 6th November and declared Donald Trump the new President-elect.
Despite 18 days since the election, the process of counting is still in process in California.
India uses Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) while the United States employs ballots to conduct elections.
