I think this must be true in the case of shares held as 'anonymous'. And for eg when I trade on the canadian exchanges my trades show up as anon because they are not held by a Canadian broker. I think there are millions of shares under the heading of anon. Of coure if any one holder owns more than 10 mil (is it?) They are legally bound to make it public.
Maybe someone else knows for certain about this?

I think you you may be correct. Whenever I have gotten the package, it’s come from my broker, not the company directly. So probably the company passes the voting package to the brokers, that then distribute them. I stand corrected.
