Shown as share counts, not percentages: no shares-outstanding figure has been matched to NIKOLA CORP. for the 2023-2024 season, so there is no denominator to divide by.
Every figure above is derived from filings made with the US Securities and Exchange Commission: Form N-PX, in which registered funds disclose how they voted every proxy and institutional managers disclose their votes on executive pay (say-on-pay, say-on-frequency and golden parachutes), and Form 8-K Item 5.07, in which the company reports its own meeting results. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on October 14, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At NIKOLA CORP.'s 2 shareholder meetings in the 2023-2024 proxy season (held August 3, 2023 and June 5, 2024), 305 asset managers reported how they voted on 26 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 3,417 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item of the season, voted at the meeting held June 5, 2024 — THE APPROVAL, ON A NON-BINDING ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION PAID BY US TO OUR NAMED… — NIKOLA CORP.'s filing reports the proposal as approved, with 69% support of the votes cast (FOR divided by FOR plus AGAINST, the conventional basis for proxy support; abstentions, broker non-votes and unvoted shares are excluded because none of them took a side).
