Elon Musk said he will allow former Donald Trump’s Twitter account to be restored after users on the social media website voted 52% to 48% to allow the former president’s return.
The 24-hour poll garnered more than 15 million votes. Musk earlier reinstated accounts tied to conservative media personality Jordan Peterson and satirical website Babylon Bee.
Trump was permanently banned from Twitter in 2021 “due to the risk of further incitement of violence.” Earlier this week, he formally entered the 2024 U.S. presidential race, making official what he had been teasing for months.
