High Amazon turnover could shift Alabama union election vote

Nearly half of the 6,143 Amazon.com Inc. warehouse workers eligible to vote in a union re-do election in the coming weeks in Bessemer, Alabama, are new and didn’t vote in a drive that failed last year, union officials said Monday, highlighting how a high turnover could bring a different outcome this time around.

The Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union appealed the results of an election it lost last year, alleging Amazon intimidated workers.
