In what many are calling a historic moment in U.S. political history, renowned entrepreneur Elon Musk has officially submitted paperwork to register a new political party — the America Party (AMEP) — with the Federal Election Commission. The filing, dated July 6, is now publicly available on the commission’s website.
The announcement follows a viral poll Musk conducted on his X (formerly Twitter) account, where he asked users whether the country needs a new political party. The response was overwhelming: 1.2 million people participated, with 65.4% voting in favor.
With the message, “By a 2-to-1 margin, you’ve said you want a new political party — and you shall have it,” Musk declared the formation of the America Party. “At a time when our nation is being bankrupted by reckless spending and corruption, it has become clear that we no longer live in a true democracy, but in a one-party system. The America Party is here to give you your freedom back.”
The move has been met with a wave of hope and curiosity across the country, as citizens from all backgrounds look to alternatives that promise transparency, accountability, and a new era of civic leadership.
Whether this marks the beginning of a major political shift or a symbolic call for reform, one thing is clear: the America Party has already struck a powerful chord with millions of Americans seeking change.
