Well, we are now hearing that some voters were able to see the vote counts by a software computer glitch by True Ballot. Over this past weekend, some voters were taken to a part of the True Ballot site that revealed current vote tally numbers. A large % of no votes over the yes votes were enough that will more than likely produce a rejection vote for this current contract offer. The split of votes, at that time, was about 75% no and 25% yes. With the number of votes already tallied, it would be extremely, if not impossible, for it to pass IF all the info I have is complete and accurate.
A quick memo was released by AMFA National on the basis that there has been a possible computer glitch that might have released the tally votes at that time. I leave with you below the AMFA National update after the word got out. It looks like we will be heading back to the nego table, but we will all find out for sure on Sep 18th.
No matter the situation guys, please vote, rather yes or no, please get out and vote...
