Mumbaikars of all hues took to social media to express their satisfaction after selecting the candidates of their choice. Some, however, also expressed discontent as they had to wait for a long time in the queue before they could exercise their franchise.

Amar Khamkar, a first-time voter, posted a picture on X, formerly Twitter, of himself at a polling station selfie stand. It was captioned: “And voted for first time. #voting #mumbai #votefornation”. Another first-time voter whose X handle is @mustbeknowing posted a picture of her inked finger stating, “Happy Voting Day, mumbai oomfs!! (Heart emoticon) (First time for me!!) “.
