Twitter users have voted for Elon Musk to step down as CEO in a poll he made himself.

The billionaire put the question to the platform's users, asking: "Should I step down as head of Twitter? I will abide by the results of this poll."

On Tuesday (19 December) the final results were 57.5 per cent in favour of him quitting.

He later tweeted: "As the saying goes, be careful what you wish, as you might get it."

It's not yet clear if he will, indeed, abide by its results.
