Mediation Board ruling on Virgin American union vote

The National Mediation Board has confirmed that the majority Virgin America flight attendants who cast ballots in an election over whether to be represented by the Transport Workers Union voted against unionization. Of the 547 attendants at the San Francisco-based airline who voted, 324, or 59%, rejected the TWU, compared with 223, or 41%, who cast ballots for the union. Turnout was high, as 610 workers were eligible to decide.
