Matt, What I think it means is that the people on record will be able to vote for the split. Thats all.

Someone may have already answered your question, but if they haven't: The only stockholders who may vote on the split are those who are owners of record on Oct 30. Anyone who owns the stock at the end of the day of the split will get the split. If you buy or sell between now and then, it won't make any difference.
