You can usually create a super-voting preferred share in a Wyoming corporation by putting the class or series terms into the corporation’s governing documents, especially the articles of incorporation or a board-approved certificate of designation if your charter authorizes blank-check preferred stock. Wyoming practice allows stock classes with customized rights, and preferred stock can be assigned special voting rights if the structure is clearly stated in the charter documents.

Practical structure

In plain English, the usual setup is:

  1. Authorize preferred stock in the articles of incorporation.
  2. State that the board may fix the rights of one or more series, if you want flexibility.
  3. Create a specific series with enhanced voting power, such as 10 votes per share or another ratio.
  4. Spell out whether the super-voting rights continue after transfer or convert to regular shares.
  5. Check whether the vote on issuing or amending the shares triggers any special class-vote requirement under Wyoming law or your own charter terms. Wyoming’s corporate voting rules are in Title 17, Chapter 16, including voting entitlement provisions.

What the documents should say

The key language usually covers:

  • The class or series name.
  • Voting power per share.
  • Dividend and liquidation rights.
  • Conversion rules, if any.
  • Redemption or automatic conversion terms.
  • Transfer restrictions, if you want control to stay with founders or insiders.

A common model is a dual-class setup, where one class has multiple votes per share and another class has one vote per share. That is the same general idea used in super-voting stock structures described in corporate governance materials.

Wyoming-specific caution

Wyoming gives corporations flexibility, but the exact validity depends on how your articles, bylaws, and any shareholder agreements are drafted. If you are trying to use the shares for control, financing, or a founder-friendly structure, it is wise to have a Wyoming corporate lawyer review the documents before filing or issuing anything.

Example wording

A simplified example is:

“The corporation may issue Series A Preferred Stock, each share of which shall have 10 votes on all matters submitted to shareholders, subject to conversion upon transfer except as otherwise approved by the board.”

That is only an illustration, not filing language, because the final drafting needs to match your charter and Wyoming corporate law.

Bottom line

Yes, it is generally possible in Wyoming, but the super-voting feature has to be built into the company’s formation and stock documents, not added casually later. If you want, I can draft a sample Wyoming charter clause for a super- voting preferred share.
