🎉 VICTORY FOR EDUCATORS IN MARTIN COUNTY! 🎉
Today, educators made their voices heard loud and clear:
âś… UNITY WON
âś… SOLIDARITY WON
âś… MCEA WON
Official Election Results:
🍎 MCEA: 437 votes (81.7%)
🍎 UTMC: 93 votes (17.4%)
🍎 Against Representation: 5 votes
Out of 1,128 eligible voters, the challenging organization received support from only 8.2% of the bargaining unit.
Despite months of attacks, misinformation, outside interference, and attempts to divide educators, Martin County educators overwhelmingly chose to stand together and stick with their union.
This victory belongs to:
✊ Our Building Reps
✊ Our worksite leaders
✊ Every member who made a call, sent a text, followed up on ballots, and stood proudly with MCEA
Most importantly, this victory belongs to the educators who refused to let outside groups define our future.
For over 50 years, MCEA has fought for educators, public education, and our students — and today, educators chose to continue that legacy.
We are stronger together.
We are united.
And we are just getting started.
