The United Auto Workers union is challenging the results of last week’s organizing vote of Mercedes-Benz workers in Alabama, in which workers voted against union representation, and is asking federal officials to order a new election. ... Union organizing failed at the Alabama plant with 56% of the vote, or 2,642 workers, casting ballots against the UAW, according to the NLRB, which oversaw the election. More than 90% of the 5,075 eligible Mercedes-Benz workers voted in the election.

So if the Tennessee VW plant wanted to challenge the union vote results ...

Just keep voting until you get the desired result and then quit.

[pfflier]

The UAW are election deniers...what a hoot.

Nope, had to wait a week.

UNIONS ALWAYS WANT IT THEIR WAY

Yup- they once might have been about workers, but when a union is openly disputing a vote indicating the will of those workers, you can see where the priorities really lie.
