As reported by the Press of Atlantic City: "A sweeping majority of table games dealers at Caesars Atlantic City approved unionization with United Auto Workers, making them the city's first casino dealers to join a union.
"The vote, which was made public Sunday and included keno and simulcast workers, passed 572-128 and affects about 860 full- and part-time employees. "A spokeswoman for Harrah's Entertainment Inc., which owns Caesars, said the casino company will challenge the results and accused the union of threatening employees to vote for unionization. The company wants another vote. "The response came less than 12 hours after votes were tallied late Saturday night, setting the stage for the National Labor Relations Board — an independent federal agency — to consider the casino company's objections. "…On March 31, dealers at Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino will participate in a similar vote…"

Like the workers needed to be threatened to join a union. Never been in one but I imagine that it's great. I've heard union members can even pass their membership down to their children when they die.
