It's no surprise that Delta's CEO Richard Anderson is a big supporter of Georgia Senator Johnny Isakson. Isakson spearheaded a campaign on Capitol Hill to block the National Mediation Board's rule change that finally brings a majority vote determination to airline elections.
Challenging Isakson in next year's Senate race is Labor Commissioner Michael Thurmond, who is the first African-American to ever be elected to a statewide office in Georgia.
We know which side Anderson is on, and it's not standing with AFA-CWA flight attendants who are working hard to ensure that workers at Delta have bargaining rights.
