What's with the AFA and IAM at Delta (NWA) filing to change the voting rules? Is this a desperation move? I mean c'mon, if you don't have the simple majority, you don't have it.
Well, after reading the entire article, it is apparent to the IAW and AFA, which represents DL North, that they will loose the right to represent in the election. The rules are not going to be changed. It would be precedent-setting, and IMO is not going to happen.
If DL south thought that IAM and AFA were such a great deal, they would have voted them in years ago
Mike Campbell!!! Nice to see you on our forums again. Why don't you crawl back to the Snakepit with your other Ford and Harrison buddies!
The way the current system works is totally jaded in Managements favor. If someone doesn't vote it is considered a NO vote! They just want to flip it around so that the Majority of those who vote rule!!! The same way every election in the USA is done!
The current sytem sucks. You have a 28 day election and Company Management gets to provide the address list for all employees (which they always pad with people who don't exist, wrong addresses, management types etc.) voting instructions are sent out via snail mail. If an individual does not recieve his instructions then she can't vote. If you want to replace them you must send for a form, fill it out, and snail mail it back. Then you wait, hope, and pray the nmb sends you another copy. The whole process is set up jaded in managements favor and is designed to make it extremely difficult to unionize. I say let the majority of those who vote rule! Why are you so scared of that?
If the US ran voting the same way very little would ever get done.
