The role of Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, is divisive, the poll showed. Overall, 49% said they approved of DOGE’s cost-cutting measures compared to 45% who opposed. Republicans and Democrats are equally divided on Musk and DOGE with 84% of Republicans backing the task force led by billionaire Musk. Seventy-eight percent of Democrats and 49% of Democrats are opposed to the group.

The poll was conducted Feb. 10-12 among 1,000 registered voters with a margin of error of plus/minus 3.5%.
