i DONT SUPPORT LOSERS and I dont waste my money on lost causes.
Having a poker party to raise money is one thing. 300 people isnt 1501 people, the number needed to win this election.
Looks like G.al.van is still 1200 short.
The same people who voted for him last time around, will waste their money again. I wouldnt take horse racing advice from any of them.
If you were in my yard last week, the feeder drivers there are unanimous that they are NOT voting for G.al.van.
In every election, there is a standard Disention vote, and no matter who runs, that vote always goes against the incumbents. Mickey Mouse could run, and he would still get 900 votes.
Let me be a little more clear on the election for L-396.
The members are clear, that they are upset with Ron H., but at this point, replacing him with G.al.va.n would be an even BIGGER mistake in the next three years.
The real wake up call for G.al.va.n will be when he stands in front of the yards asking for votes. Its really clear that the members will send him a clear message at the gates and this message will be "thanks, but no thanks".
Just last week at my hub, a large group of feeder drivers were discussing this very issue. The consensus was clear, they are NOT voting for G.al.va.n.
Not because they like Ron H., but rather, they dont like G.al.va.n even less.
Time will tell.
Bringing in sanitation workers to the Executive Board will only bring bigger problems to the local in the future. The last thing our local needs is to be taken over by sanitation workers because G.al.va.n gave them legitimacy in his Eboard to the point where they form their own slate and cut out UPSers from the Eboard.
Any UPSer only needs to ask themselves if G.al.va.n is bringing in sanitation workers to assist UPSers or himself.
The answer is clear as a bell.
TOS.
