17.5m votes, 57% voted for him to step down
Just a bit of fun and games for Musk. In Nov he already tweeted that he is only acting in the CEO capacity, and was looking for someone to take over permanently.
He'll act as CEO for a few months then have someone replace him, just as he would have done if the votes said "Don't step down".
Would have been a hit to his ego though.
What's happened to Syndrome? Fallen down the twitter rabbit hole?
