Thanks to Bobby Odor playing the tape at the membership meeting, then telling the members that his investigation concluded that Mark was not speaking to Vivian, and Mark Williams taking the mic right after Bobby and telling the membership he was talking to Vivian then claiming everything he said and did is ok because he is passionate; members have been signing her recall petition at an incredible rate.
It looks like Vivian will have her 20% in short order.
According to the Union Constitution 20% of the members “in good standing” need to sign a recall petition in order to trigger a recall election. Who counts the signatures and which signatures count is where, the real magic starts.
If you are considering signing Vivian’s petition, but have not, you need to before she submits her signatures.
Mark Williams and his crew created a new definition of “in good standing”, just for recall counts.
In order to vote a member “in good standing” just needs to have their dues paid up, but in order to sign a recall petition a member “in good standing” has to have their dues, fines, and assessments paid up.
As you can see from the letter Mark sent to Will Lundy, 231 members who signed did not get counted due to the new definition created just for recall petitions. Will Lundy – Recall denial letter 3-5-14
Vivian needs to get as many signatures as possible, then see that the recall signature count is witnessed by a couple of honest members she picks, because she can’t trust the lying, deceiving, corrupt Officers currently running Local 13.
Hopefully Vivian will get enough signatures to trigger a recall election.
