"The AFL-CIO justified its petition for the new rule by contending tabulating those who opted not to vote as “no” votes was undemocratic"

Pure bullshit....count the "yes" votes, compared to the total workforce, and if you don't have 50%+1 wanting Unionization, the workforce has made it's choice freely. Obama's plant on the NLRB, the Mediation Board, and on the USSC have created the Workers' Socialist Republic.

I have to be honest here and say that I don't find the union's position all that unreasonable. We don't elect our leaders based on the premise that they must secure a majority of registered voters, do we?

I would think a worker who doesn't participate in a union election is voluntarily giving up his/her right to have a say in the matter, right?
