New York,
Much awaited voting for the US presidential election has begun , starting a process that would unfold as to who would triumph at the end of a bitter year-long campaign – Hillary Clinton of Democratic Party or Donald Trump of Republican Party.
Hillary and Trump had been crisscrossing the country in their last minute push to woo voters in their favour. This is the unique election , as it is for the first time that the outgoing President Barack Obama raised questions over the safety of nuclear weapons under Donald Trump presidency.
Most of the pre-polls have predicted a win for Hillary Clinton, who has been recognised as a sensible and experienced politician as against Donald Trump whose bizarre are comments about immigrants, Muslims and NATO have unnerved the world .
American citizens of Indian and Pakistan origin are almost unanimous in their choice for Hillary Clinton. Hillary is viewed as a realistic friend of India and she , as first lady, later secretary of state and now as senator and probably as the next president , understands South Asia better than Donald Trump.
The race has begun . As the day progresses, America would let its choice known.
