Musk Rarely Deletes Post, Republican Get-Out-the-Vote Post Disappears

Odaily: Multiple mainstream U.S. media outlets have released projections that Democrats won a landslide victory in the U.S. midterm elections held on the 3rd, regaining control of both the Senate and the House of Representatives. Musk, who had previously spent hundreds of millions of dollars to support Republican candidates, quietly deleted a get-out-the-vote post after the election ended. According to a November 4 report by The Washington Post, on Election Day, Musk posted on social platform X urging voters to "vote red today!" However, by local time on November 4, this post had disappeared from Musk's account. According to earlier reports, Musk's financial input in this round of midterm elections reached $474 million, setting a historical record for political spending by a non-candidate donor in a single election cycle. He not only used the X platform to campaign for Republicans but also publicly attacked Democratic candidates multiple times. However, the election results did not turn out as Musk had hoped.
