Obama recently got a majority of Democrats appointed to the five-member NLRB, which is historically more pro-union when Democrats hold the White House, and less so when Republicans do.........................Let's hope the RATS don't overturn the elections results.

Well, well, well...I wonder how Obama’s corrupt NLRB DhimmicRat majority will rule?
To: mandaladon
They will hold election after election after election, until the union wins. Then there will be no more elections.

This goes to Obama's kangaroo court NLRB. Reversal is a lock.
But the Supreme Court is hearing a case challenging Dear Leader's recess appointments to the Board, so this Board may not be the one that would hear the case.

Now, now. I’m sure the nlrd will be fair and square about the whole thing. They are bound to be objective. Right? Right? Hello. Hmmm. Just crickets.

How can anybody intimidate somebody to vote a certain way in a secret ballot? I would think intimidation would be counter productive unless the employee feels that his vote will not truly be secret.

Mr. Bottom put his fellow Commies on the NLRB illegally, using recess appointments while the Senate was still in session. At least these criminal acts are being challenged, if others are not. Any decisions issued by the poofter’s goons will be nullified.
Impeach the Negro.
There, I said it!

This isn’t going nowhere, and here’s why: TN is a powerhouse of manufacturing and jobs, and it is ranked #1 to retire (better than TX). The state is so red, it bleeds. So if the NRLB does overturn this, TN will tell VW to pound sand.
To: dsrtsage
That’s why the union thugs want card check instead of secret ballots, precisely so they can intimidate workers. See: Steelworkers Local 401 in Philly; members & associates brought up on RICO charges. They beat up independent contractors with baseball bats and even destroyed a Quaker meeting house.

Standard play book for liberals:
manipulate the vote, if that doesn't work-
demand a recount, if that doesn't work-
find a sympathetic judge and ask for the election to be thrown out.

Isn’t the UAW an “outside interest group”? They have no ownership stake in VW

How can anybody intimidate somebody to vote a certain way in a secret ballot?Especially when management wants the union to win as did Volksvagen's.

Teacher unions NEVER let people re-affirm (via vote) unionization once it's in power. Some unions have been in power for DECADES and all of the current employees never officially voted to AGREE to that compulsory collectivist institution (method of bargaining/contracting)! Suddenly votes "matter," regular re-votes "matter" to 'make sure' employees have truly rejected [read: want] mob rule.......

meanwhile, their goons in the plant are going to go to work on just 44 guys; just enough to switch which side a majority would fall to in a new vote

The UAW has confidence they can terrorize enough workers and
their families to get the reults they want in a second election.

To: fhayek
You are right. They’ll just keep saving the pro union ballots from each election and resubmitting them over and over until they accumulate enough to declare themselves the “winner.”
