Elon Musk on Sunday said there was no successor to take over Twitter if he were to step down as CEO.

In response to a Twitter user who assumed Musk had already chosen a new leader, the billionaire wrote in a tweet that “no one wants the job who can actually keep Twitter alive.” He added that he had no successor in the pipeline.

He made the comments the same day that he tweeted a poll asking his followers if he should step down as the head of Twitter. After posting the poll, he said he would “abide by the results.”

By the time the poll had closed on Monday, 57.5% of respondents voted in favor of him stepping down as Twitter’s CEO.
