Poll: Many Americans would back Musk's third party
A new poll indicates that approximately 40% of Americans would support a third political party founded by Elon Musk. This follows Musk's announcement of a potential "America Party" in response to Donald Trump's recently passed bill. The Quantus Insights poll, conducted from June 30 to July 2, surveyed 1,000 registered voters and revealed that 14% would be "very likely" and 26% "somewhat likely" to support Musk's party. The poll also showed significant interest from Republican men. Musk's announcement and the poll results come amid a broader desire for alternatives to the existing two-party system, as indicated by a 2023 Gallup poll. The bill passed by lawmakers is set to be signed by the president today.
