"... 11,000 of the SEIU members voted to disaffiliate in workplace balloting; and 95% of the votes supported the CAW in government collective bargaining elections."

We do have another thread about Andy Stern. If you feel this old story merits further discussion now on a separate thread, perhaps you could offer some more explanation.

I did not intend for this thread to be about Andy Stern. This old story may be new to many of the readers of babble.
