Google said it was working to fix a bug that produced different requests for “ku can vote for Harris”i n “q can vote for Trump. ”
The results for Kamala Harris' request turned a window to help researchers find a polling station, but demand for Donald Trump featured only news articles and no map.
The problem was highlighted in a post in X divided by owner Elon Musk, who soon reached more than 4.5 million views.
The official account Google on X responded by saying, “Panel to vote on) is being activated for certain specific requests (because) Harris is also the name of a country in (Texas). That's what happens to Vancea (because) it's also the name of a container. ” The company said it was working to fix the problem.
Google added, Very few people actually look for polling places this way. ”
The “where to vote” the panel is testing for some special search Bc Harris is also the name of a country in TX. It opens for “Vance” too bc itʹs also the name of a country. Fix is coming. Not really few people actually search for voting places this way. Pic.twitter. com/P8x SxcJmLa
