All Votes Went Facebook’s Way at Its 2017 Annual Meeting

None of the five stockholder proposals received a majority vote

Facebook held its 2017 annual meeting Thursday at the Pullman San Francisco Bay in Redwood City, Calif., and the company’s shareholders voted Facebook’s way on all seven proposals on the ballot.

The social network’s board of directors—Marc Andreessen, Erskine Bowles, Susan Desmond-Hellmann, Reed Hastings, WhatsApp co-founder Jan Koum, chief operating officer Sheryl Sandberg, Peter Thiel and co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg—was re-elected to serve until the company’s next annual meeting, barring death, resignation or removal.

Ernst & Young was ratified to serve as Facebook’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending Dec.
