The deck is getting smaller and Big Labors dream of destroying America is down to a few precious cards. They know the massive backlash against their Marxist plans is building.
The showdown is coming quickly.
Union hopes of seeing their underhanded Card Check scheme become a reality now rest in the clammy hands of Craig Becker a union puppet lawyer Obama snuck on to the National Labor Relations Board as a recess appointment.
Workers have no rights
Becker is a lackey for both the AFL-CIO and SEIU so his anti American, pro union credentials are in perfect order. He has often said and written that employees should have NO rights or say in a union takeover of their workplace. In Beckers view only union bosses should have a say in such a process.
So far despite paying $60 million to buy itself a Democrat Congress Big Labors efforts to destroy workers freedoms with forced unionization through Card Check have gone nowhere. The thuggish system of canceling workers rights to a secret ballot on the question of unionization is so un-American that even the Marxists Democrats in the Congress cant get it passed.
Electronic voting in a Union hall?
To ram through Card Check unions are looking for Becker to approve an electronic voting service. This new trick would move voting from the actual workplace where traceable paper ballots would be used to a union controlled location where electronic voting which is more easily perverted would take place.
... purpose of this change would be to insure that workers could be coerced and intimidated by union goons threatening them to the right way.
Like a 1930s gangster movie
Close your eyes... almost see Edward G. Robinson walking an old seamstress up to an electronic balloting machine in a union hall....

Electronic voting machines are more secure than paper. Well, they can be, but the powers that be seem to not want such machines, instead preferring easily corruptible systems. I don’t wonder why.
Electronic voting machines are more secure than paper”””
Not so sure of that statement at all.
Hackers have proven that they can get into almost any electronic system in the world.
I don’t trust the ‘electronic machines that have no backup paper trail.
We have vote fraud in paper, too. Being a computer security person myself, I've read up on the design of many of the voting machines being used today, and the design is just pathetic.
On physical security, to secure the device one of them even used a standard office cabinet key that you can buy at any office store (and published a photo of the key online so you can make one yourself anyway). On programming security, I see a lack of common-sense verfication the system is running as designed, with the approved software and configuration. One wasn't even encrypting and verifying the data, and none of them probably do.
The scariest part is that when states enacted laws to force audits of the software running the machines, the companies sued so they wouldn't have to hand over the software for an audit. That sounds like they knew their system sucked and wanted to keep it a secret.
