Why a Secret Ballot?

The El Paso Times reports on the Texas Chamber of Commerce’s opposition to enactment of the Card Check Scam Bill. Most interestingly, local union boss David Aranda is quoted as saying, “Why should it (union formation) be secret?”

There you have it. Union bosses want to eliminate the secret ballot and don’t believe that the decision should be made in the privacy of the voting booth. Any claim to the otherwise is a falsehood. Without a secret ballot, workers will be subject to pressure and intimidation, and Aranda and his ilk know it.
