The announcement came after Musk launched a survey asking Twitter users for their views on his performance during his tenure as head of the company.
He said he would “accept and abide by the decision of the people”.
After the survey period ended last Sunday, a total of 57.5 percent of respondents said Musk should leave the company.
In late October, Musk finalized the US$44 billion acquisition of Twitter.
Musk overhauled the company’s day-to-day operations, including firing half of his employees and Twitter executives responsible for the platform’s privacy, cybersecurity, and censorship.
Before posting a poll on Sunday about his potential resignation as head of Twitter, Musk announced that from now on, “a vote will be taken to determine major policy changes” at the social media platform.
