Is that not the case?
It can, but that's like step 45 and we haven't opened the book to step 1. Everything between that point and here involves numerous votes. In and of its self the single filing is just one union (doesn't have to be a union either) claiming it should represent the entire group.
I don't think it's a wise choice for 1224. I have nothing derogatory to say about 1224 either. The above post about voting numbers is entirely correct. Being here in the time period you were you are probably aware this management group has no problem falsely inflated one carriers crew numbers to get what they want. Just sayin.....
