Talk about stacking the deck

"Republicans oppose a recent National Mediation Board decision backed by Democrats that makes it easier for airline employees to unionize.

The board's ruling made passage of a vote to unionize dependent on getting more than 50% support of those voting. For example, if a company has 1,000 workers but only 200 take part in the vote to unionize, the rule change would meant only 101 "yes" votes were needed for it to pass.

Under old rules, more than 50% of all workers eligible to vote -- or in this example 501 "yes" votes -- would have been required for it to pass. Workers who didn't cast ballots were counted as having voted "no," making it more difficult for supporters to succeed."

Come on, how do we count votes in this country? You win by getting one more vote than half of those who voted. Those who don't vote don't get counted.

Republicans are just being assholes. It comes natural.
