It is surprising, well maybe not, that the MEC is having a tough time figuring this one out. I guess we will find out soon enough. So now for the "rumor"; I heard from a guy that attended the local council meetings that he heard that a guy who actually attended the open MEC Meeting (must be true then) that the only thing he knew besides the fact that it is now in extra innings is "who nominated who".

So, if true, he said the ANC rep and MEM checkairman rep spoke for JG. The senior MEM and the junior MEM block reps spoke for SS.

The only thing that struck me as funny was that the MEM check pilot types would support JG? That group has never been happy with the 2006 CBA where they mostly think their work conditions and stuff were kind of gutted. JG was part of the committee that did that Contract and I have always heard those type of rumblings of unhappiness from longtime IP friends. Maybe JG has given them a good read on the plans to fix the deal? Who knows...

I did not know it was even possible to attend an election meeting, but I guess they are open to members in good standing. I just hope whatever the decision that they can make it and not come out of there a still be a split group when it is all done.
