,,,, but with the Against vote scoring 40-43% for each of the trustees, this is hardly a ringing endorsement for the Welch Brothers and their team!
Having read this announcement, I recalled receiving a cold call in about a week or two ago ... the caller was from an agency hired by Slate Office to call investors and ask them if they had received their documents and had voted. I replied to the affirmative. Then I was asked how I had voted ... to which I replied "Why should I reveal to you how I voted?". The caller stammered a bit and said thank you for confirming that you have voted. I now surmise that they had an inkling that something was amiss with their usual order of business and that a revolt was brewing in the ranks.
Needless to say I voted my units (and my daughter's unit since I manage her account) Against the recommended Trustee nominees! Apparently, a lot of other investors did the same. Kudos to all!
