Breaking News: WorldMark Board Votes on Proxy Allocation
September 25, 2009In the Sept. 16th Board Meeting, the WorldMark Board of Directors accepted and approved a motion on the allocation of proxies in the upcoming WorldMark Board of Directors election. In this meeting the Board voted to allocate all assigned proxies in equal proportion toward each of the three incumbent WorldMark Directors (Fry, Morrison, and Henley). Effectively this provides the incumbent Directors with a significant “head-start” in the vote totals going into the Annual Meeting. In the 2008 election, the Board cast over 65,000 votes received from owner proxies. No information was provided on the number of proxies received in this year’s election cycle.

Any suggestions on how to improve this site are greatly appreciated as we naturally have the “chicken and egg” conundrum. Candidates need to see that their appearance here will provide them with better exposure to the owners and result in more votes. Owners need to see the presence/contributions of the candidates in order to want to make this a place to learn more about the candidates.
So help us figure out how to make this place more appealing. Any suggestions are really appreciated and the Suggestions page is the place to make them. No registration or e-mail address is required to post comments/suggestions.
