<\/a><\/center>In case you haven’t noticed, things haven’t been going very well<\/a> for HP<\/a> (HPQ<\/a>) lately and the company’s shareholders this week nearly voted to oust three members of its board of directors. As Bloomberg<\/em> notes<\/a>, three board members received less than 60% of the vote in the most recent shareholder referendum just one year after all of them were comfortably reelected with votes of 80% or higher.\u00a0Erik Gordon, a professor at the Ross School of Business at the\u00a0University of Michigan\u00a0in\u00a0Ann Arbor, told Bloomberg<\/em> that such high negative vote totals are rare and that HP will likely have to force some members of its board to step down if it wants to retain any credibility with its shareholders.<\/p>\n
