E.D. No. 59

Synopsis:

In response to timely post-election objections, the Executive Director sets aside a representation election and directs a second election. Due to an unavoidable delay the Commission agent was unable to open the polls until two hours later than scheduled. The employee organization - which lost by a vote of 20 to 15 - objected that 8 eligible voters failed to appear at the polls due to the two-hour delay. The Executive Director rules that as a matter of law the circumstances presented do not comply with the mandate of the Act that there be an opportunity for "free choice of the employees".
