They can still challenge the results, but it looks like its over. 1798 against (1609 to get majority + 1).

It's not over, it's never over, but this was a loss and it does hurt.

    And the neolib ghouls at the New York Times are absolutely preening themselves over it. Wait till they remember what unions were the compromise for :gui-better:

      sorry bro the average american is either a pro-capitalist liberal who thinks the c-suite executives and the billionaires are the pinnacle of sophistication and class or is a pro-capitalist semi-automatic toting right wing gun nut who would use their guns to "fight against marxism"

        This article has already morphed a lot since I made this comment, but its original phrasing of "Amazon Workers Defeat Union Drive" and what a "crushing blow" it is to organized labor is gross. No mention of the dropbox fuckery, no explanation of what it means to contest the results or why the union might do that. First several comments pinned by NYT were also about how corrupt unions are. Idk maybe I just have brainworms at this point but it feels like the exact same way they covered any primary that Bernie lost -- unrestrained eagerness to paint the narrative that thing they want to lose (i.e. working people) was just utterly destroyed and has no hopes of recovery.
