46% are worried that social media can be used to swing elections.

Only about 28% of Americans support banning TikTok, according to a new poll from market research firm Savanta. And while it remains to be seen whether the U.S. Senate will take up the so-called TikTok ban bill that passed the House earlier this month, this new poll will probably give lawmakers pause about the next steps. The House bill, “Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act” passed on March 13 with a vote of 352 to 65, but without clear partisan distinctions.

About 69% of Americans said that TikTok and other social media companies, “need to do more to protect their personal data, including from foreign governments.” And 59% said that social media companies should do more “to tackle harmful speech and imagery on their platforms.” About 46% said they were concerned about the idea of social media swinging elections.
