Why this vote at a Tennessee Volkswagen plant is historic for the South: Volkswagen workers in Chattanooga, Tenn., are voting this week on whether to join the ...

Quick Glance: Historic Vote at Volkswagen Plant in Tennessee

This week, 4,300 hourly workers at a Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee, are voting on whether to join the United Auto Workers union.

The significance of this vote lies in the potential shift in union dynamics in the South, with the UAW launching a strong campaign to penetrate non-union auto factories in the region.

The outcome of this vote could either significantly strengthen or hinder the union, with the UAW needing a majority of yes votes to win.

Southern politicians warn of job losses if unionization occurs in the region, while Volkswagen emphasizes respecting employees' right to choose and its substantial investments in the plant.
