Elon Musk Reveals When He Will Step Down As Head Of Twitter After Launching Poll To Determine His Fate
By
Elon Musk could be stepping down as Twitter CEO soon.
Just two months after the Tesla mogul bought the social media site for a whopping $44 billion in October, Musk launched a poll to see if people wanted him gone.
He wrote: “Should I step down as head of Twitter? I will abide by the results of this poll.”
Over 17.5 million votes were cast, with 57.5 percent of people voting “yes.”
Musk then shared an update on Tuesday, writing: “I will resign as CEO as soon as I find someone foolish enough to take the job! After that, I will just run the software & servers teams.”
