[QUOTE="542thruNthru, post: 3737825, member: 48491"] I believe it has to be the final offer for that to happen but you are correct with the 2/3 under 50%. Here is the language you are talking about that was posted on here by bubblehead. [I]Article 12 - Section 2(d) reads: "Results of ratification or rejection votes with respect to master agreements shall be determined by all involved voting members on a cumulative basis of all votes cast as follows: (1) If at least one half of the members eligible to vote cast valid ballots then a cumulative majority of those voting in favor of the final offer shall result in acceptance of such offer; and a cumulative majority of those voting against acceptance of the final offer shall authorize a strike without any additional vote being necessary for such strike authorization. A tie vote shall be resolved as provided in Section 1(b)(l) of this Article. [B](2) If less than half of the eligible memberscast valid ballots, then a two-thirds (2/3) vote of those voting shall be required to reject such final offer and to authorize a strike. The failure of such membership to reject the final offer and to authorize a strike as herein provided shall require the negotiating committee to accept such final offer or such additional provisions as can be negotiated by it."[/B][/I] b This is incorrect. Only if at least 50% vote. I believe last contract only about 25% voted. [/QUOTE]
