Are the votes counted yet?

Votes are counted and it passed by a substantial margin at AK. Queens much closer!
Congrats on the union for passing such a fine contract!

Thanks John. I guess we will start over again in 2 years.

Lets all move on.

As per Ernie ... 500 Yes, 244 No.

If you ask me, many of those 500 "Yes" votes were not as much in favor of the contract as they were against a strike. (As was mine, and I made it known when I cast my ballot.)

The owners know that there is no unity among the rank and file and called our bluff. Its like Obama drawing his red lines. Now is the time to strengthen our unity moving forward. No more voluntarily covering work is a start.

Makes that Strike Vote useless and bullshit. 

Can we use the same excuse at the next contract? And the next?
