The over/under on yes votes on that site is 1. I'll take the under.

Do you really think that site's poll has any meaning whatsoever? Seriously?

Here's the link, a few minutes ago it was 199 votes Against, with one 'abstain' which I believe was a guy who is out on disability and not able to vote.

Absolutely. To count the No's. The captains are the swing voters. If 2000 Captains participate in the poll indicating their No's, this TA will most assuredly be defeated.

I get what you are saying, but I just came from the school house, and I can honestly say I have never seen so many guys so pizzed off, most of whom said, "I voted Yes last time, but NOT FOR THIS POS!"

So, where are all the Yes voters?

I met one on the hotel bus, he was worried about being parked for 3 years.

Fear is not a logical reason to vote Yes for concessions in a time of record profits while we are still below 2004 pay/benefit levels, but it did work on our MEC yes voters.

It might, if you see 6000+ NO votes.

Gotcha. I don't disagree with you either. I was just saying that on the dee pee aaaa site you are not going to find anybody that will vote yes. It's is pathetic to even bring up that poll.

Youre right but as someone mentioned its about tallying the NO votes. If they are in fact legitimate well be able to tell if there were enough NO votes to turn back the TA.

I guess that's fair. The only problem is that I ain't joining that decrepit organization just to cast a vote.
