Musk is spending money for Trump, will distribute one million dollars every day: How much does the US presidential election get from India’s election scene

The campaign for the presidential election in America is at its peak. Now less than two weeks are left for the elections. Even now, there is a possibility of a close contest between the two candidates. Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and Republican Party’s Donald Trump are trying their best. The election scene appears to be similar to that of India in many ways and completely different in other ways.

UP of India, Pennsylvania of US
For example, in India, while winning the Lok Sabha elections and forming the government, it is said that the road to Delhi goes through Uttar Pradesh and the parties put full emphasis on Uttar Pradesh. Similarly, in this US Presidential election, the route to the White House goes through Pennsylvania. The maximum number of electoral votes here is 19. Therefore, without winning here, it is almost impossible for any candidate to win the Presidential election. This is the reason why both the candidates are campaigning vigorously in Pennsylvania.

Billions of rupees have been spent on publicity here. Not only this, Trump and Kamala themselves or their closest associates also maintain a daily presence in Pennsylvania. On Monday, Kamala held a big election rally in Pennsylvania with Liz Cheney.

The position of Kamala’s party is considered strong in Pennsylvania, because in 2020, Democrat Joe Biden got 81,000 votes, whereas in 2016, Trump got only 44,000 votes here. Not only this, the latest surveys are also giving Kamala the upper hand here. In ‘The Washington Post’s ‘Poll of Polls’, Kamala is said to be two percentage points ahead of Trump. But, the challenge for Harris is that she is less popular here than Trump.

Rahul is for BJP and Kamla is for Republicans.
Kamala Harris’s low popularity among voters is not limited to Pennsylvania. This is the case in all seven major states. In a recent survey by ‘Wall Street Journal’ conducted in these states, 20 percent of the voters said that they did not know much about Kamala Harris. The number of young voters who said this was 25 percent. Perhaps this was the reason why the Republicans did a lot of negative publicity about Kamala in the last round. Like, BJP people in India do to Rahul Gandhi.

Kamala Harris has solved this problem also. She now talks about herself in programs. She tells about her past and also talks about her likes and dislikes. In one such program in Detroit, she told that during her college days, she had done a summer job at McDonald’s in California and she used to fry French fries.

Rahul’s Jalebi, Kamala’s French Fries
Even on this revelation of Kamala, Donald Trump expressed his shock. Like, during Haryana elections, BJP members had attacked Rahul Gandhi regarding Jalebi. While campaigning on Sunday, Donald Trump went to a McDonald’s outlet in Philadelphia. They fried French fries there. Trump said, ‘I like this job very much. I wanted to do this my whole life. Besides, Harris’s claim of working at McDonald’s was also called a lie.

Pressure increased due to statistics
Both Trump and Kamala are having to sweat harder in the campaign for another reason. Just as in India too, caste data becomes important for the purpose of winning elections, similarly, the problem of the candidates contesting for the US President is also hidden in one data.

Demographer William Frey has analyzed the latest data of the Population Bureau. He has shared its conclusion with the media. In this he has said that compared to 2020, the number of voters without college degrees has decreased by two percent. The support of this class of voters has been the basis of victory for the Republican Party. This is the first time that the total percentage of voters of this category has reached below 40. In order to fill this gap, Trump is trying to woo as many black voters as possible.

Early voting system like postal ballot
Just as there is a provision to cast vote through postal ballot from the date of polling, similar system is there in America also. Under this, ‘Early Voting’ is still going on. According to University of Florida data, more than 50 lakh people have cast their votes. Surveys are showing a close contest.

US elections are not like India in terms of hate speech
During the campaign, while Trump worked on the policy of organizing rapid events, Harris’s emphasis was on exposing the Republicans and proving Trump unfit for the post of President. In the election campaign, everywhere one party attacks the other party, but the American presidential election campaign is different from the Indian election campaign in the sense that provocative statements are not used to target each other. Is.

Industrialists do not openly support parties in India
In another respect, the US Presidential election can be considered different from the Indian election. Here the industrialist avoids coming out openly in support of any party in the elections. At the same time, in America, Elon Musk openly shared the stage with Donald Trump. What’s more, to strengthen Trump’s campaign, he announced a competition and also announced a daily reward of one million dollars for its winner. However, this initiative of his is being considered an unusual phenomenon in American politics and there is also a debate on whether it is legally correct to distribute money in elections like this?

The world’s richest industrialist Elon Musk had formed a Political Action Committee (PAC) in support of the Republican Party several months ago. Through this committee, he started mobilizing voters in support of the Republican Party. Whether their support to Trump with all their heart, mind and money bears fruit or not, it will be known only after voting on November 5.
