Chattanooga, Tenn. - Volkswagen Chattanooga workers voted in favor of union representation in their workplace this week. The vote was administered through a democratic, secret ballot vote overseen by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).

A total of 3,613 votes were cast, which is 83.5 percent of employees who were eligible to vote, in the April 17-19 election.

Two thousand six hundred twenty-eight (2,628) votes, or 73 percent, were cast "Yes" for representation by the United Auto Workers (UAW).
