Stockholders challenging General Motors policies failed to win the required support of three percent of shares. Campaign GM said it will renew efforts next year after the dissidents fell short, with proposals including board election changes and disclosures on safety, pollution and minority hiring. The South Africa apartheid proposal, sponsored by the Protestant Episcopal Church group, received 2.97 million of 229 million votes. Retiring Chairman James Roche called the outcome not a victory and the meeting lasted nearly seven hours.
