Speaking far more realistically - the governor would bring in 10x as many NG along with stuff like armored personnel carriers and other matériel to scare the utter crap out of the strikers. The governor would give them an ultimatum - "Disband with ______ hours or face the consequences".
And - if we want to go back to a sci-fi like unreality - the next day if there were "enough" strikers - in the mind of the governor - they'd be arrested. And if they refused - ridiculous amounts of force would be used on them. Maybe there would be an "unfortunate" death or two. And then the state government and/or the DOJ would give them obscenely long jail sentences.
They can't let the plebs think they have any sort of power at all.
