ocskyguy,
I agree 100% with your post except for B&C.

B. This is factually the total opposite. Since K4 is currently represented voting for item #4 on the ballot (No representation at all) IS IN FACT! THE ONLY CHOICE THAT REQUIRES 50%+1 of all on the voter list. This is very clearly spelled out on the voting instructions now posted in the training center, and be mailed out with your pin#. This is also the only possible way to end up with no representation at all. The ballot has three possible yes votes.

1. IBT
2. Doug Pearce
3. Write in of any other representative.
To be the winner of these 3 and therefore the new K4 representative ONLY TAKES A SIMPLE MAJORITY!
So if only five people vote for #2, ten for #1, and 15 write in ALPA in #3, ALPA is legally our new representative.

C.
I think the timing is great as Dan Wells cannot hide from the fact of what 1224 is doing over at OMNI. 1224 tries to say it is all about the strength of one on the CVG ramp, but the sad fact is ATLAS is the only other 1224 carrier which does ACMI passenger flying and he is holding up a 85% raise over our 16 day month when they are not even asking to work less days.

All K4 pilots must ask themselves this question.
Do I have any doubt at all about if 1224 cares more about what Dan Wells wants, or this pilot group. If we stay 1224 after this vote it will only be worse and we will probably never see a new contract unless it has EVERYTHING he wants.
Stay strong and write in ALPA so we can control our future!
