One labor and employment observer said the New York vote was 'shocking,' since Amazon workers there had no support from an established union.
People arrive for work at the Amazon distribution center at the New York City borough of Staten Island on Oct. 25, 2021.
If a majority of Amazon workers ultimately votes yes in either Staten Island or Bessemer, it would mark the first successful U.S. organizing effort in the company's history. Organizers have faced an uphill battle against the nation's second-largest private employer, which is making every effort to keep unions out.
Though RWDSU is currently lagging in the latest election, Logan said the early results were still remarkable because the union has made a good effort narrowing its margin from last year. "I'm not too sure what's going in Alabama right now, but I know that the sky's the limit if you can organize any warehouse," he said, noting that the vote in Alabama could well end up differently."I hope that they're successful. I don't know what's going on yet, but we know we show our support and solidarity with them."
