Doubtful the rest of the Board of Directors would vote yes on that motion. He only owns like 27% of Tesla. If people wanted to unionize, bet you he wouldn't even close down 1 factory. He'll just double down on his anti-democratic anti-worker rhetoric.
He's still by and large the majority shareholder compared to anyone on the board, and they're all basically his puppets. They're all propped up by him and sit on the boards of his other companies, so they really can't vote against him, lest they incur the wrath of the Musk.
