If there is a metal can under the cardboard then there were negative terminals on it's bottom (they may have snapped off when it got busted off its wafer). If there is no metal can or terminals on the cap and just wires out the bottom then there has to be a negative lead if it is a multi section cap.
You need to get the schematic and trace things out if you can't make sense of the wiring that's there.

The reason I was asking about the ground connection with this capacitor is because on the bottom of the capacitor there's only 3 terminals for the "positive" leads and then theres the twist-loc tabs that held the capacitor to the phenolic wafer that snapped off the TV chassis and one of the twist-loc tabs has some wires attached to it but I'm unsure as to whether they are ground wires or if they are just using it as a convenient terminal strip.
Like I said the Capacitor is a cardboard cased multi-section capacitor with no apparent ground connection of any sort, at least not to the chassis anyways that I can see of.
