The applicant applied to decertify the responding party union.
The union requested that the ballot box be sealed pending the resolution of a reconsideration request, a timeliness issue related to another proceeding, and allegations of employer conduct and voting irregularities.
The Board had previously declined to seal the ballot box in two prior decisions.
The Board found that the union's allegations of prejudice were insufficient to reverse the earlier decisions and ordered the ballots to be counted.
