P.S. "HARD MONEY" is union dues that CANNOT be used for re election campaigns. Only "SOFT" money ( donations) can be used for re election campaigns.
If "hard money" is used, there could be federal violations broken.

Are you guys for real? Elections cost the local money to hire a third party to handle the ballots, vote count ect ect. But you insinuate they used hard money for their campaign....... You are pathetic with your tactics. Get lost troll.

YOU made the assertion LB. Read what YOU wrote. You said the election cost the members money, or did you not understand what YOU wrote while trying to sound like a big shot?
Let me remind you of what you said...
"
Realbrown1 how much did you cost the local when you ran against them? Local elections are not cheap. Was it worth the 344 votes you got?
The way I see it is a few thousand of that cost is yours."
In this, you imply that the local incurred additional costs OTHER than electoral costs. You state that elections are not cheap, and that the Additional money spent by the LOCAL to have the election should cost realbrown1 a share of the burden.
I realize youre a wannabe spokeshole for 952, but to clear the record, lets understand one premise. The LOCAL CANNOT use dues money to directly campaign for office. They CANNOT use dues money to buy TSHIRTS that indicate who to vote for.
An election for a local is always scheduled for three years no matter who runs against the incumbents. REALBROWN1 being a dues paying member, has already contributed to the treasury that will ultimately pay for the election and he has no further obligations to pay for anything.
You simply overspoke on this one. An incumbent local must spent its own money, whether out of pocket or donations and no member has any obligation to cover these costs.
Now, back to your election last year, if only the two slates had come together to form ONE slate and find some middle ground instead of running two slates and dividing the discention votes, PK would be on the street today.
Instead, they kept their egos above reality and split the vote giving the re election to PK.
Next time, the opposition better understand how math works.
TOS.
No matter how many slates run against the incumbents, the cost to the local for campaigning will always be ZERO or federal laws could be broken.
No member has any obligation to repay a local for a campaign. Dont be silly.
is NOT TDU. He is a Hoffa man and we told you all over a year ago that this was coming. TDU also was out front warning that this would be the case.
