Hi-Tech Indian Elections
This story in AsiaOne digital reported that social media will play an active role in Indian elections this year. New electronic machines will be used for voting and there is an online voter registration campaign. Facebook, YouTube and blogs all of them will be used for campaigning. Political parties are sending SMS updates to voters.
Of the 700 million voters, 100 million youth between the 18 – 24 years will be first time voters. It would be an interesting election.
