It’s about 160 million in 24 hours at peak. It’s a few dozen in a few minutes at a polling place. This not strenuous for a computer.
Trump: "I did ask Elon because he knows more about computers than anybody I know. I said, what do you think of the voting system? He said, computers are not meant for voting. It's too many transactions taking place too quickly."
