A majority of voters are taking a positive view of Elon Musk’s takeover and overhaul of Twitter, according to a poll released Monday by a conservative group.

The Trafalgar Group, working on behalf of Convention of States Action, asked likely voters if they “support Elon Musk’s ongoing efforts to change Twitter to a more free and transparent platform?”

Roughly 52% said they support the efforts and 31% said they do not, while 16% are not sure. When the unsure voters are removed from the survey, more than 6 in 10 are supportive.

Mr. Musk, a vocal CEO of multiple companies, made sweeping personnel changes to Twitter after his well-publicized takeover of the popular platform.
