Members in four onsite votes held so far have each ratified their re-negotiated contracts for these tough economic times.
The latest are the two bargaining units at Eastern Washington University. In onsite balloting Monday (June 15), EWU Bargaining Unit I voted to ratify on a vote of 92-18. Bargaining Unit II voted 10-0 to ratify.
Members at Western Washington University in Bellingham ratified the re-negotiated Higher Education Coalition contract that will cover them. The vote was 111-14. Onsite balloting took place June 10.
The members of the UW Police Management Bargaining Unit ratified their re-negotiated 2009-2011 contract 6-1. Onsite balloting took place June 10.
The last onsite balloting takes place today at Everett Community College.
All other units voted by mail. Ballots were returned by June 12. The General Government ballot count is now in progress, with the time-consuming task of checking the thousands of ballots against the membership list. That vote count will be followed later this week by tallies of the remaining Higher Education Coalition campus bargaining units and Washington State University.
The University of Washington contract is still in mediation.
