Has anyone seen anything from reporters who have said anything indicating which way the vote is going to go? Also when will it be announced? I’m getting nervous?

    Your union has to be set up under the NLRA or else strikes are considered wildcat strikes, which are illegal in the US. In Canada, you may only strike for economic reasons as part of a labor dispute - no solidarity or wildcat strikes are legal.

    You can still set up a union not under NLRA and unions were formed in the US well before unionizing came under civil rights protections, but its harder to do stuff and retaliation from bosses can be (legally) harsher. The West Virginia Teachers strike the other year was wildcat yet I don't think anyone faced any retaliation, it's not like it doesn't happen.
