36. The best outcome of this is that the NLRB calls for a new election.........

and the UAW wins it. The first is outcome is likely IMO and the second outcome is 50/50. This is a VERY anti-union state and business owners are equated with God and unions with the Devil. I was surprised that the vote was actually as close as it was.

But for those calling for some sort of official charges against Tennessee governmental officials, that ain't happening.

BTW, did you notice that Haslem said that TENNESSEE had incentivized unionized companies before, he did NOT say that HIS administration had incentivized unionized companies. To my knowledge, the HASLEM administration has NEVER incentivized unionized companies.
