Still other reps voted no despite the attempt by you and the rest of the MEC administrators to put them in a no-win. The obvious question was whether the MEC admins should have done that to the reps. The reps sure answered that question didn't they.

There is not one rep who for the TA who did not go out and actively support its approval.
I know you think this is an explanation, but this is just a made up story, existing only in your mind. If the reps felt that they had a better path to more money they should have voted no. This whole no-win situation is just baloney made up by you. We won an additional $1 billion in contract value and the MEC and the pilots agreed by a large margin. You keep trying to make up stories about why all these people are too weak minded to make their own decisions but it doesn't fly. Just like all your DPA junk you spouted off here for years; no one bought it. Just like your stupid reasons why you voted no; no one bought it. Somewhere in that bitter little world you live in you think you are making points but instead you are just showing your ignorance with made up propaganda.
Once again, you ignore what the policy manual says and what has been the practice at Delta for years and years. Being a rep means you have to make hard decisions. One of those decisions is looking at a TA that doesn't satisfy all your goals. That will happen every time you negotiate. If the reps couldn't make those decisions then they should have stepped down. Instead, they made the decisions, they supported their decision, and the pilots agree with them. In fact, in each base where a rep voted no, the majority of their pilots disagreed with them and voted for the TA. So who was really representing the bottom up majority? All the rest is just ex-post facto made up hoohah by you and the minority who want to exercise their will above the majority. No one is buying it.
