Apple Shareholders Vote Down Calls To Reveal Steve Jobs Succession Plan

Apple shareholders have voted down a proposal that would have required Apple to disclose Steve Jobs’ succession plan.

The vote came at Apple’s annual meeting today. The proposal was brought by the Laborers’ International Union. Apple’s board also opposed.

Apple has said in the past that it has executive succession plan, though it hasn’t revealed what that plan is.

Steve Jobs wasn’t present at today’s meeting. He continues his indefinite medical leave. This is only the second time in a decade he has missed the annual event.
