Add to that the anger of the NWA pilots for what happened in the merger with the back room with Prater and you may well have a DAL split in the voting booth.
The other wild card here is that despite the discussion being "banned" in their offices, you can bet that Moak is considering taking DAL independant.
YMMV
To be concise, you are stating his campaign platform is:
"Elect me President of your organization, or I will destroy it" ??
If DAL pilots split votes along the lines seen in the Compass divestiture vote then Rice seems like a shoo in. The irony here is the reason Moak is popular with the regional pilots has most to do with actions taken by the f-NWA Reps.
Moak is not bought and paid for by management. That's ridiculous. He is smart enough to be relevant and has turned that position at the table into solid gains for his pilots.
The FedEx candidate from Boston has the funniest opening line of any campaign speech ... "Yankees Suck."
