I think it is pretty ov=bvious LP don't take chances, so she makes sure she has the vote no matter what happens. Obviously certain things are out of her control and certain things are under her control. I believe anything under her control she deal with extreme effectively. Will we get news before vote, I don't think it really matters to her. She probably hates us all at this point, at least it feels that way imho. This is all my opinion
I would never thought NWBO would have a proxy vote before interim blinded data was released. Which way I will vote I do not know yet,because I have to see what NWBO next moves will be. However your outlook do reflect my thoughts. IMO
