Question

Three days prior to a union representational election, the company president called an employee meeting where he discussed the upcoming election. In his speech he said that voting for the union was a futile act, that it would inevitably lead to strikes, and that collective bargaining would not bring any benefits or improvements; rather the employees would lose the benefits that they already had. The

union lost the subsequent election and asks that the NLRB set the election aside. Does the union

have a good case? Explain.
