VW invited the UAW into the factory to campaign for organizing the workers. Do you think the ~1500 workers will vote for UAW representation?

It's Tennessee, a Right to Work state. The workers will vote no.

Bob King will convince the workers that the UAW will benefit them and they'll vote yes.

    The election will be held between February 12 and 14th btw. Not sure when the results will be announced. My guess is that the yes vote will top out around 38%.
