[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 3654488, member: 49065"] I would not worry too much about the percentage of the current strike vote, back in 2002 it was also at a 93 percent approval with a raise of hands at your local union hall. Far more members participated with this electronic vote. The apathy is there still but you will always have the hard core seniority members that vote on every ballot or election. The real percent of this Strike Authorization is a deep, hidden secret for whatever reason who knows. Another consideration is that the Union is trying to figure out how each one of the regions will vote and by what numbers. Just from my limited experience I would say it would be fair to claim that this Contract will live or die in the Midwest, South and East..The West is content with their good pension but still that GWI will not keep up with their increasing cost of living, they will probably go 50/50 on this as it stands now..
