A higher meeting participation rate might have scared low integrity reps from exercising their low integrity, but participation rates are unnecessary with high integrity reps. The problem is NOT apathy. The problem IS reps and union officials MAINTAINING their integrity.

I don't get you. You claimed that things were broken in 2012 when it passed. Now when it fails it's broken again? It worked as intended. The pilots decided it wasn't good enough and it was rejected.
What is your problem with democracy? I voted for the TA but have immense respect for the majority will of the pilot group and will support our collective effort moving forward. There is no taking my ball and going home.
Your agenda is to replace Alpa at all costs. Nothing will be good enough. We get that.
