RJ got 62% of the votes.... to me that is more of a landslide victory that other people have claim for presidential elections recently.

I thought the other candidates had very valid points but this was a clear endorsement for RJ.

Again, that doesn't mean things are perfect at all. And we should keep pushing for improvement but I don't think it can be dismissed as a completely anemic pilot group.
The pilot group also voted in a 1% raise the last time so is proven they don't vote for their best interest.
