I voted for John because I work with him and know he's a very capable representative. Most don't know him, don't know what ASAP is, and will never need his service. I'm of the opinion that most believe they we pay dues to hire representatives to oversee contract negotiations, monitor company violations, and conduct day to day union business recognizing unionism is not a religion but a means to promote our professions for better pay, benefits, and working conditions. Certainly voting on a contract and representatives ranks high and commands more participation but otherwise most want to spend time with family, friends, and hobby's.
