Because now that he owns twitter, he is the one that can act on bots.
That is also why he act surprised when people mention bots, because it is an act.
The fact he accused twitter to be responsible for the bots..
Yet he was dead silent after buying his way into the seat of those that he had previously accused of being responsible for the bots.
Simply because accusing bots would unavoidably ends up accusing himself if we follow the trail.
Those polls he "lost" had always convenient margin but more importantly, he never lost a poll that actually had an important impact:
-The journalist ban lift: he was still forced to do it as before the poll happened, he was under the threat of a massive fine from the European Union for threatening press/free speech
-The resignation: he was already searching for a ceo since long, it just happened that he made the poll after Tesla threatened to replace him as a CEO due to his absence and tomfoolery
His polls has been a farce that he used to trick people into thinking how democrat he is, like a banana republic trying to appear democratic by helding sham poll.
It doesn't take much to see the ruse, it isn't even a good or clever ruse but if it is enough to fool the average/slightly below average citizens then that is enough to fool half the population.
