X owner and Cuckold moviesTrump supporter Elon Musk reposted a message on Election Day claiming Google is helping Harris voters find polling places, while not doing the same for Trump voters, but the search giant is doing no such thing.
At about 3 p.m. EST on Tuesday, Musk reposted a conspiracy theory on X, the social media site he owns, that falsely claims Google is giving Kamala Harris an unfair advantage.

According to DogeDesigner, "Google shows a ‘Where to Vote’ section with a map for Kamala Harris, but not for Donald Trump.
Google is the biggest corporate donor to the Democratic Party."
The problem is DogeDesigner is way off — Google's "Where to Vote" section includes voting information for counties, not candidates. Possibly unbeknownst to both DogeDesigner and Musk, there is a Harris County in both Texas and Georgia.
Underneath DogeDesigner's post was a Community Note with more context provided: "The search query works because Harris is a county in Texas."
Readers added that surname-sounding counties like Clark, Clinton, Eden, Franklin, Floyd, Leon, and Marcy are all searchable on Google's "Where to Vote" feature.

Placated by Google's explanation, Musk reposted their message at about 4 p.m. EST, writing, "Thanks for the clarification," though his original repost on the subject remains on his account.
