I'm expecting one of the following:

(A) A sudden last minute huge influx of "No" votes. Either caused by bots or by Musk putting his finger on the scale. (Yes, I think this voting will be rigged.)

(B) He already has someone in mind for running Twitter. That person will be as bad or worse than he is. (What's DJTJ doing these days?)

(C) He will claim that 'liberals' and 'bots' forced a "Yes", so he'll remove those votes.

Twitter employees have stated that Twitter polls are a sham and entirely ruled by bots. There are no controls in place to prevent this. So the only question is, who's got the biggest bot army?

Surely he has access to enough stats and data, that he can hold the vote being relatively sure what the outcome will be before-hand.

A bag of flour would be noticeably better.
