If during the first ALPA drive, if the voting window had been open just one more day, we would have already been certified. Numerous ballots were not signed making them null and void. The data base the company sent to the NMB was tainted and proven in court to be purposely inaccurate. My voting ballot was sent to my emergency contact's address which was my parent's address, many states away. While all the company propaganda showed up just fine at my own house.

I stil don’t buy it. Unless you can provide a link. As it’s a court dock. Easy to produce... I’ve never heard of what you are saying. SkyWest would have been all over the news and a revote would have happened if this was true..

I have no idea what court system it’s in. I do know it was shown in many cases to be true. Myself and hundreds of others were asked to submit the envelopes with the inaccurate addresses on them to an outside legal firm months after the vote. By then I no longer had mine, only a few people were able to produce them. I did sign a statement that my ballot had been sent to an address that was actually my parents address and not my official address on file with the company.
Also it been determined that ballots had been sent pilots that were technically on the seniority list but were in management which further diluted the vote as well. Kind of like yourself.
I don’t think the NC will make these mistakes in the future.

To change gears, I'm at SWA and i heard about a month ago that there was a flow-thru brewing between OO and WN. I caught wind that some folks from SWA were milling around the training center in Salt Lick(sic).
Not flame bait, this is just what i heard and was wondering if any OO guys or gals have heard this as no other SWA line folk have that i have asked.
