UniteHere has managed to corrupt our top officials of our union now.If you read your FOUR constitution Article XIV, Rules Of Order. The executives are suppose to follow Robert's Rules of Order. Now, Sniper did write to Robert's Rules on 6/5/06 about mail -in voting. Our Constitution and bylaws say nothing about E-mail ballots nor does it say you can vote twice. Check the track record. Beginging with the change of heart that our executives have now. At first all you heard was strike vote. Now it was the best that we could do! Just before the "Take It Or Leave It Proposal " there were either two or three re-schedulings for negotiations. They go to the table the last day for a couple of hours and all of a sudden! Plus they put NO on the ballot with the authorization of a strike to scare people into voting yes. If you can't figure it out yet, maybe some outside sources can. WE HAVE BEEN SOLD OUT! Our question is who is on the elections committee and where are the ballots going to be counted." Any member in good standing may be present". We suggest that you call your officers to ask some of these questions yourself. This is something that we "recommend".
Are you saying that this may be an illegal vote?

Maybe illegal. We might have to file some ULP's with the Labor Board.

Check this out! Infared is on and safety is off. All of the people counting ballots are people out of the General Office. How come none of the field staff or old timers were appointed? Before you squeeze hold your breath and release gently. Don't jerk. You will always hit your mark.

You lose because you and your kind have been exposed and now you have to show your skills. The talk is over and your ways of the past are over. No more slacking for
you and your pals at h.e.r.e. Your nest (local 217)your country club, your shitty ass college (yale) the skull and cross-bones have been exposed. Now we get to watch you and your friends RUN LIKE COCKROACHES WITH THE LIGHTS ON. Just think we now have five years to weed you clowns out.We will never stop fighting. It's not over, YOU ARE! Mission accomplished.

Are you nuts? This is the settlement you called a sellout. You pushed to vote no. You pushed for a strike. And those of is that have wanted this settled got EVERYTHING we wanted. You got nothing.
Four settled because it was too weak to do anything else.
Your way of life with four is dead, the HERE way is taking over.
