Musk voted by mail in November 2016, the year Donald Trump defeated Hillary Clinton, and in the November 2018 midterm election, the records show. Musk’s primary residence was in Los Angeles at the time.

The state records show that Musk had a sparse history of voting in California. During the 18 years he was eligible to vote there, he cast ballots in only those two elections. He became eligible to vote when he became a U.S. citizen in 2002 and cast his first ballot 14 years later, at age 45. He was actively registered to vote by August 2006, the records show.

Among the elections Musk skipped were presidential races in which Barack Obama, John McCain and Mitt Romney were on the ballot, all primary elections and all local elections. California has an open primary system in which all registered voters are allowed to participate.

A fine, patriotic American who definitely belongs in Trump’s cabinet.

        You’re right. You butted in on a conversation and then went “not that I care” when challenged. So kindly bugger off. If you’re going to level crap at me then stand by it instead of being yet another internet contrarian.

          No, I offered an alternative viewpoint and you went ‘nuh-uh wrong’, and when I pointed a mirror at you and reused your words as you did to me, you got upset. Reality check, you aren’t the main character and we are all merely NPCs in your world; others surprisingly have different opinions and are - now this is key, pay attention - allowed to freely express them.

          Or, much simpler: pot, kettle, black.
