Musk hasn’t said yet whether he’ll follow through with his promise to step down.
Elon Musk asked Twitter users Sunday whether he should step down as head of the the social media platform he bought earlier this year, pledging that he would “abide by the results of this poll.” Monday morning, Musk got his answer.
By a 15-point margin, respondents to Musk’s unscientific Twitter poll said he should resign from his post atop the social media giant.
The final results came in early Monday morning, with 57.5 percent saying “Yes,” he should step down, and 42.5 percent answering “No,” he should stay in the CEO role.
The declaration comes as Musk has faced widespread criticism less than two months after he bought the company, gutted its staff, drove away major advertisers and saddled it with billions in debt — all while stoking one controversy after another.
Musk hasn’t said yet whether he’ll follow through with his promise to step down. Musk would remain the owner of the platform, so it’s unclear what the change could mean in practice.

I think Twitter should focus on solving “bigger” problems, personally. This just isn’t one. Add more free features that make the product better for everyone, focus on advertisers and getting more b2b revenue. Most importantly, Twitter shouldn’t be the story on Twitter every day😃
