Elon Musk to step down as Twitter boss following poll result – but will this prediction come true?

The poll delivered a decisive victory for the 'yes' camp, with more than 17 million people participating in it.

Elon Musk looks set to step down from the top job at Twitter after just two months, if he respects the results of an online poll launched on Sunday night.

Around 57 per cent of 17 million voters had said that Musk should resign as Twitter chief executive with around three hours to go until the poll closed.

Musk launched the Twitter poll on Sunday night after having watched Argentina beat France in the World Cup final in Qatar.

“Should I step down as head of Twitter? I will abide by the results of this poll,” he tweeted, along with the options “Yes” or “No”.

Let me predict the consequences of this poll:

If „yes“, Elon will be CEO for a few months longer until he finds a devoted successor.

If „no“, Elon will be CEO for a few months longer until he finds a devoted successor.

But there are doubts over whether he will honour the will of the people.

Last week he removed a poll on reinstating the accounts of suspended journalists before it had concluded.

And Zsolt Wilhelm, a podcaster, shared a theory which gained considerable traction on the social media platform.

In his view, if the poll returns a ‘yes’ outcome, Musk will remain CEO for a few months longer until he finds a “devoted successor”.

If no, Wilhelm predicts the exact same outcome.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
