To all our UA brothers and sisters,
I would just like to say I'm very proud of my station CLT for stepping up to the plate.
And I feel for the first time since we joined the district that we are coming together as one. the ND08 is making sure
that EVERY member US or UA will be represented in the way WE all should be. The ND08 slate from top to bottom
has nothing but FIRST CLASS UNION people representing us and for that I can sleep better tonight.

Any UA in BUF? their vote is tomorrow!
I agree that the stations who could get the vote out should be proud. That would be not only CLT but PHL also. As far as sleeping better tonight, well, that's what dreams are made of.
.....Hope you don't wake up in the midlle of it. You won't know how it ends.

The great (not) cornholly arse has awoken a sleeping Giant in CLT....the most solidarity I have seen in my twenty-two plus years....Congrats....we will take the bull by the horns............I agree that the stations who could get the vote out should be proud.

I have always been one to support Canale. I think he has been very successful in his endeavors. Now you have added one more success to his credit. "MOST SOLIDARITY IN 22 PLUS YEARS"
Again, I say, thanks Randy.

Sad that this credit comes from pis!!ng the members off! It would of been better to keep your blind loyalness to him if he was more credible in let's say, being a true unionist? Maybe when this election is over, ND08 will give you the spicy randaroo posters that are leftover? For some reason most of them have holes in them????

It most be tough supporting a BIG LOSER....."MOST SOLIDARITY IN 22 PLUS YEARS=MOST LOPSIDED DEFEAT OF AN INCUMBENT GROUP OF DUNG..........
I never followed from 10+ years of US fleet membership in the IAM. I suppose because we at UA were enjoying our industry leading contracts. I have never been one to always look on the other side of the street to see if johnny got more than me. I always paid attention to my own company and my own coworkers. Going through bankruptcy twice must be a b**ch. I know going through once gutted is enough for me. If you guys at US fleet feel you got the shaft from your union and not your company, then you did what you had to do. But don't ever think that 19% of the membership that voted was a lopsided victory. It only shows 81% satisfied/complacent employees are not interested in an internal confrontation. I believe if/when this comes to fruitation, the silent ones will start screaming. For them, so sorry, too late, go with the flow and ride with the tide!

EZ,I'm with ya ,I usually don't get involved with the union politics....however after the co(US) and several get rich ,rape/run CEO's. we as a group felt like the IAM with present leadership did'nt have our best interest at heart,it's bad enough coming from your co.....but we pay these guys (IAM) to keep things in check....therefore the ND08 Team.....change is sometimes good...time will tell....good luck to our airlines,and to the New leadership of OUR IAM District....

Today LGA finished the district election with 50 votes for Delaney and 0 for Canale? Other numbers were similar by one vote etc., special thanks to LGA and FV for a great turnout considering the election was already decided!
