Shareholder proxy vote
You can vote on BVX Board members + other items on line as part of Shareholder proxy voting. I believe this is for stockholders who will not attend the annual meeting.
Stockholder's meeting is October 18th. Anybody going?-
Sarameg, you can't vote "against," and because there's not a competing slate of directors to vote for, you can only withhold your votes. We all do it, but it's an exercise in futility. Just on anecdotal evidence, I believe those of us posting on this board control upwards of 500,000 shares. Unfortunately, that's not nearly enough to cause even a stir. The three stooges of management and this keystone kops of a board can't be removed unless Renn leads an opposition. And that's not going to happen, at least not this year.

From 2011 Proxy Card:
INSTRUCTION: To withhold authority to vote for any individual nominee(s), mark “FOR ALL EXCEPT” and check the box next to each nominee you wish to withhold authority. -
On the proxy forwarded by my broker, I'm sure you could vote for or against any director.
A vote against is more than just a withheld vote, correct? -
Disclosing votes for, votes withheld and the number of shares not voted would tell you more than that.
-
Well, to hide shareholder disgust. Is this a trick question?
-
If you can't vote the bums out, why would Bovie skew the actual results of last year's ASM? Votes Withheld vs. Votes for?
-
Unbelievable. This experience has taught me that Wall Street is a complete scam. The common shareholder exists to get fleeced.
-
Usually on the proxy statements I receive there are instructions for voting electronically, but I didn't see that on the latest Bovie proxy statement.
Does anyone have instructions for voting online?
thanks.
