Twitterverse split on bringing back Trump in a poll posted by Musk

Elon Musk has solicited the wisdom of the Twitter neighborhood about letting former President Donald Trump rejoin the conversation.
He posted the question as a Twitter poll.

The initial tweet asks simply, “Reinstate former President Trump.” Over 11 million people have voted as of Saturday, with a breakdown of 52.3% in favor and 47.7% against.

Mr. Musk noted early Saturday morning that the poll had been receiving around 1 million votes per hour. The 24-hour poll will end Saturday at about 7:47 p.m. EST.

In the succeeding tweet, Mr. Musk wrote: “Vox Populi, Vox Dei,” roughly meaning “the voice of the people is the voice of God” in Latin.
