Get Your Voting Instructions – And Vote
This vote is too important to let someone else decide your future for you. Your voting instructions and the Tentative Agreement Summary booklet should have arrived at your home long ago. The publication includes your Activation Code and instructions on how to cast your ballot at VoteNet, our secure voting site (a link can be accessed through OurContract.org or unitedafa.org). 

If you have not received your voting instructions and activation code, you can request these in one of the following ways:

Electronically: send a request for a new activation code to the Ballot Helpline by filling out this form.

Telephone: Call 800-424-2401, press 1, and then ext. 706.

The Ballot Helpline hours are as follows:

Wednesday, August 10,2016

9:00 AM - 8:00 PM Eastern

Thursday, August 11,2016

9:00 AM - 8:00 PM Eastern

If you need additional assistance or have questions regarding the Tentative Agreement, please contact your Local Council Office.

Make sure your vote is cast by August 12 at Noon Eastern Time.

Once I cast a vote can I change it?
The rules for balloting will change in the future due to an expected new rule from the Department of Labor and action by the AFA Board of Directors this year. These new procedures require an implementation process expected to be complete by the end of the year. That means this voting process will be familiar to all AFA members – as information becomes available during the ratification process AFA members can access their ballot and recast a vote. Only the last vote cast will be counted by the electronic balloting agency.
