The other write-ins will get their single digit percentage points just like the last presidential election where I believe there were 10 candidates in my state. Romney and Obama got 99% of the votes and the other 8 candidates shared the remaining 1%. Same will happen here. ALPA and DPA combined will get 99% of the votes.
The only way we could end up with no union is if a majority specifically voted to become non-union.

As it would be just as easy to dilute the brandy/cigars/oil paintings vote. But each one of those votes of attempted dilution would take away a vote from the union really desired by the voter.
It's a great idea though Bar. You should encourage your ALPA voter buds to vote for a write in candidate union to dilute DPA support.

This is the exact same nonsense stated by those hoping for our failure when we had 150 cards.
It's so interesting that some folks are so concerned about our card count. You clearly don't believe it, so relax and crack open another beer. Nothing to worry about.

I wasn't drinking either, but my wife does say I worry about stuff too much.

If you consider the number of outsourced seats decreasing to be loosening scope, then you're correct.
It's not just RJs Carl. But you already know that. The total number of outsourced seats is decreasing. Mainline flying is increasing.
That's simply your opinion. Facts are what count Carl.
See above.
So wait....then it IS tightening scope. It's just not as fast as you want it to be. But that wasn't your claim. Your claim is that it's isn't even being discussed.
Read your contract Carl. Or LOA 13-03. Multiple examples of flying coming back to Delta pilots.

It's only nonsense to you because it shows you're incorrect.

It sure isn't. It's been tough to get our message out and get these 5,500 cards. Especially since you have to renew them with a hand written signature and mail it with a stamped envelope. I've renewed mine 3 times and getting close to a fourth time.

That same math has been with us from 150 cards to our current 5,500 cards.
