Ok, I believe you. (Plus, I don't have any evidence to dispute your number.)

Now, how many of those will 'vote for the DPA', if a representational change came to vote?

Honest question. No condescension, name calling, or insults.

For example purposes, lets say that 90% of those who submitted a card, will vote in favor of DPA representation. (Assuming 10%, who are keeping their cards active to 'wake up' D-ALPA.) Your organization will need to garner 1,054 cards. Math computations below:

Nov. Seniority List: 11653
Majority of Sen. List: 11653/2 = 5827
90% of Cards to reach Majority: 6475(90%) = 5827.5

6475 CARDS needed to produce 5827 VOTES equals an additional 1,054 cards!!

Do you think that's possible Carl? Or DAL 88 Driver? If so, when? Before our next Section 6 negotiations? Or 'DURING' our negotiations, like last time?

Thanks,

GJ
