I just got an email from my broker letting me vote in a Vanguard election. How do I choose who to vote for? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Let's be honest, here. These votes are for the large shareholders. Not to sound like a nihilist here, but these elections are for them, not us tiny investors.

I'm not telling you not to vote, but think about how much money your time is worth. Do you really want to dig into this, or go do something you enjoy?

With overvoting adjustments on broker-held shares as opposed to shares directly registered with the company’s transfer agent, your votes may not even be counted.
