It's amazing how Elon here can be publicly a dumbass so often and people still think he's a genius.
Elon Musk on Tuesday complained about the position of Andrew Cuomo’s name on the New York City ballot and the fact that it appeared only once, while Zohran Mamdani and Curtis Sliwa's names appeared twice. But the listings are in keeping with the normal rules of the city's elections. Here's why.
