JERSEY CITY, New Jersey (Reuters) - Goldman Sachs Group Inc said on Thursday that shareholders voted to elect all of the company’s directors and that more than 90 percent of votes favored its executive pay packages.

The votes were taken at the bank’s annual shareholder meeting at its offices in Jersey City, New Jersey on Thursday.
