[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1279528, member: 42270"] The "strike vote" is a strike authorization vote [B]only[/B]. It simply gives the National Negotiating Committee the option to strike. Per the IBT Constitution, if a strike authorization vote fails and a supplement vote also fails the supplemental agreement can then be imposed. Quite frankly, I don't think many people know what will happen if a strike authorization is approved and the supplement also shot down. The rumor is that if any strike action takes place, picket lines won't be sanctioned beyond the affected areas. That's probably one of the big reasons why we haven't heard of a second vote out of Local 89 -- the company can move/divert work around Ohio and Pennsylvania but shutting down Worldport would cripple UPS air operations.
