95% of our members voted to strike because we want fair pay, just cause, and flexible remote work, and @nytimes refused to make a deal. Management spin doesn't matter though—worker power does.

We are on ULP strike. We gave @nytimes management months of notice of our strike deadline, we made ourselves available around the clock, but the company has decided that our members aren’t worth enough to agree to a fair contract and stop committing unfair labor practices.

There is no one more puzzled about the Atlas poll result in North Carolina than me. The Early Voting data suggests a very strong performance by Republicans and frankly it's difficult to see how based on this data the race is even close.
