It is impossible to gauge the number of site members who do not vote because many ‘non voters’ may no longer visit the site nor see the poll.
We don’t ‘cull’ the membership list of those who may be inactive members because it is pretty hard to define ‘inactive’
All we are trying to get here is a response from currently active members i.e. Those that currently visit and take the time to interact with the site. This will help give RMT/OILC an idea of how many members there are around here. The ‘No’ option is almost academic in that respect.
This poll asks a simple question: Are you an RMT-OILC member?
The question was posed to see which members of this site are RMT members as well. It isn’t asking if people are undecided about uni0n membership or not.
All that is required is a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answer. Those that are undecided would probably have trouble voting anyway.
We ran a poll on which uni0n people would join, among the answers was one that said: I would not join a uni0n.
The question was:
Would you join a Maritime Uni0n (eg-RMT) or an Engineering Uni0n (eg-Amicus)?
The answers/results were:
*Maritime 55.73% (214 votes)
*Engineering 19.01% (73)
*A different Uni0n 3.91% (15)
*I would not join a Uni0n 21.35% (82)
There were a total of 384 votes.
It was the poll with the greatest number of responses on this website since we started running polls in Dec 2003.
The original poll, still available for all to see is: HERE
At any time ongoing results for all polls can be viewed by clicking on the Results option in the poll itself.

The answers/results were:
