On July 4, Tesla CEO Elon Musk asked his followers on X — the social media platform he owns — whether he should “create” something called the America Party to give them “independence” from the country’s “two-party (some would say uniparty) system.”

More than 1.2 million users responded to Musk’s snap poll: 65% said yes; 35% said no.

“By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it!” Musk vowed the following day.

Since then, however, Musk hasn’t taken any visible steps to deliver on his promise. A new Yahoo/YouGov survey — which captures a representative sample of the U.S. population, in contrast to informal social media polls — suggests possible challenges ahead: Just 14% of Americans say they would be open to “supporting a third party created by Musk.”
