Twitter's board is asking shareholders to vote for the $44 billion takeovers of Elon Musk. Twitter's board wants the company's share price to complete the $44 billion Elon Musk takeover, recommending that shareholders approve the deal. The company's share price is around $38.12 — much lower than Musk's offer price of $54.20 a share.
