Hmm.  In that case, he should extend Offers to each of us stating what he 
will do.  That way it's still official.  In any case, I believe everyone 
should receive the full effects of the fix, not just those intimidated into 
voting.  I think that if he makes a good proposal, it will pass on its own 
merits, and he doesn't need to goad anyone.  No offence intended in any of 
this, of course.

A moment after thinking of the above, I realized that Offers can result in a 
very wide loophole in the Kickbacks rule.
