Sounds like a big difference, but look at the overall percentage of the election turnout. L89 had a good percentage turnout and they voted 3400-400 for Z. I'd say that is plenty of support.Other big locals didn't come close to touching that.The fact that over 48 percent voted against a 17 year incumbency speaks volumes. Particularly with 6 VPs winning and incumbent VPs losing the vote battle in their own locals.Don't act like you have this massive mandate from the members. It was a close election, showing real issues. We as a membership need to move our union forward and those in leadership need to lead, rather then push us backwards.</blockquote>
