India is the country which has the largest number of voters
Explanation:
Hope it will help you
India population 1.34 billion. 540 million out of 814 million voters cast ballots, 66%. (A third of India's population is under 18.)
China population 1.38 billion. Anyone over 18 in China is eligible to vote, so that would be 1.13 billion potential voters. If 60% voted that would be 678 million. (About 18% of Chinese are under 18)
Official population of China does not include Hong Kong or Macau (@ about 8 million) which are Special Administrative Regions. Note: The PRC claims Taiwan as part of China @ 23.5 million. It was unclear if these were included in the official population estimate.
So, while China does have the largest number of eligible voters, China's election process is very complex. Only local representatives are directly elected. There are no direct elections for national office holders.
USA is the third largest population at 326 million, with 200 million registered of 231 million elegible voters. (25% of Americans are under 18) 138 million actually voted in the last national election, 60%.
So India has the largest number of voters participating in direct national elections.
China has the largest number of potential voters, but because of how the Chinese political process works, it is difficult to determine how many Chinese actually vote.
These are rough numbers, but should be good approximations. Good enough for this topic anyway.
