I am patient with stupidity, but not with those who are proud of it.

Not sure of the exact number but I think between active and retired Members it's probably somewhere between 8,000 and 10,000 that were eligible to vote yet only 3,300 people voted. Just goes to show another reason why our Local is struggling. It amazes me! All anyone had to do was mark an "X" in a box and put it in a postage paid envelope that was provided to you then put it in ur mailbox for ur postman to pick up. Literally all of 45 seconds. Meanwhile I'm bumping heads with the Management & even the Union for the benefit of All of Us. For what???
SMH. I shouldn't say nobody but it's pretty obvious not many care. Yet many are very happy about the recent Consent Award!!!

You make very valid points. I don't think I remember an election with even 4,000 voters. People just don't care. Puzzling.

I do recall one election between Salerno and M. Cordiello that the final numbers were 2000 and something to 2000 and something, that obviously Michael won but only by a couple hundred votes. I think they may even of had a recount. I also believe the reason Michael won is because Ernie campaigned for him and got a good amount of Pioneer Members to vote for Michael and not just throw the ballot in the garbage.

I was thinking of that election and you're probably right ... might have been just over 4000 voting, but barely.
