Marc Ambinder has some
more information on the card check poll I posted earlier, as
well as an AFL-CIO poll that shows similarly lopsided margins in
favor of the Employee Free Choice Act's key provisions. The
results depend heavily on how the questions are worded, with the
AFL-CIO leaving out the fact the workers have less privacy in
card check events than in secret ballot elections and the
anti-card check pollster exaggerating the privacy angle in a
highly loaded question. I think Ambinder understates the degree
to which card check would stack the deck against secret ballot
elections, but his conclusion is correct: card check makes it
easier for unions to win than secret ballot elections. The point
of the legislation is to increase unionization.
