I haven’t. No paper materials yet and neither of my brokers (Fidelity and Merrill) have voting options on their websites.
We’re 5 business days out from the meeting and the USPS is jammed with holiday traffic.
I’m not surprised.

For proxy voting: To vote by telephone, call toll-free 1-800-PROXIES (1-800-776-9437) in the United States or 1-718-921-8500 for outside USA.

Is there anyone out there who has Wall St. Journal contacts to do an expose on the old directors who have deliberately eschewed their fiduciary responsibilities?

These board members are a complete joke. They are doing whatever they can to ignore shareholders, and to do whatever suits them personally. Agreed that getting this story in front of journalists would be a good next step

Nothing yet. Must be part of the good governance agenda, give shareholders no time, sandwich the meeting between Christmas and New Years, so we can sneak this large pay and stock deal for executives and directors over the goal line. Pay no attention to the stench of the McGinnis “what did he really own/manage” issue, it will blow over.
They must be thinking, “Shareholders, what are those?” Lets keep acting like Trustees for Life, just better compensated!

I was able to vote the shares held in my 401K. I have a separate taxable account held under an LLC (same broker, Fidelity) and for some reason I haven’t received anything for that account yet.

I haven’t voted. Hell, I was going to ask if anyone else was able to. I’m still waiting for something to mail. I tried to go in via my electronic vote email but was told I already voted. I’m nervous as hell. I want to vote these @#$@$ out.
but civilized.

went to town for beer and mail, no proxy in the mail. Did have a voicemail when i returned, a call from Makenzie (sp?) Partners about the upcoming TPL board meeting. Telling me to vote and I could vote by calling a number. Anyone else get this and is it a sign that they are now realizing that the proxies aren’t arriving?

I spoke with MacKenzie partners today and they said they received the materials from TPL on December 7 (proxy date) and then they mailed it off to Broadridge via snail mail (yup, first class USPS) and they then take about 4-5 days to mail it via snail mail to the brokerages. Who knows if it will ever arrive in time.

Say it ain’t so Joe. Are you saying that during the period with heaviest postal volumes, that TPL mngt decided to send snail mail ballots? Not just one snail, but two snails full? AND shareholders are expected to get these last second ballots right smack in the middle of the holidays and maybe hitch up a third snail for the trip home?
This isn’t incompetence, this is malice of forethought.
