This excerpt taken from the UDR DEF 14A filed Mar 25, 2009.
What is an abstention, and how will it affect the vote on a proposal?
 
An “abstention” occurs when the beneficial owner of shares is present, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote at the meeting (or when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner is present and entitled to vote at the meeting), but such person does not vote on the particular proposal. For purposes of Proposal Nos. 1 and 2, abstentions will not be counted as “votes cast” for purposes of determining whether stockholder approval has been obtained and, therefore, will have no effect on the results of the vote with respect to such proposals. With respect to Proposal No. 3, however, abstentions will be treated as “votes cast.” Therefore, abstentions will have the same effect as a vote against Proposal No. 3.
