Hmmm... You say they are respected, but not well known, and they "just want to make sure everyone who is/was a part of NWA ALPA knows what the union is doing..."
I just noticed an interesting (?) observation. In 2 of the 3 MSP elections, one of the candidates ignored answering the ALPA Watch questionnaire, or having any of his info posted to their site. In both cases, that individual won by a reasonably wide margin. In the other race, where both had all their stuff posted, the race was very tight.
A statistician would argue that there is a negative correlation between success and involvement with ALPA Watch.
I wonder if ALPA watch is such a fringe group, nobody cares...
