Proxy Access Nominee Gets Elected

Last December, Broc blogged about the second-ever attempt at using proxy access – via a Schedule 14N filed for “The Joint Corp.” This Form 8-K reports that the nominee was elected – along with all of the incumbents that the company nominated. It doesn’t look like the company put up much of a fight (at least not publicly). The filings indicate that the proxy access nominee was added to the slate in lieu of one of the prior-year directors, who wasn’t renominated.
