Does presidential candidate Donald Trump plan to respect the outcome of the Nov. 8 elections? He told Americans at the Oct. 19 debate he’d let us know after he sees how the results turn out.

Workers in Trump’s golden-glass-covered hotel here have first-hand knowledge of how, when it comes to respecting election results, their boss has a lousy record.

Last December, a federally-run election took place involving the Las Vegas Trump Hotel. The 500-member work force voted by secret ballot to become part of Culinary Workers Union Local 226, and the National Labor Relations Board certified the outcome. But management, led by Donald’s son Eric, has flat out refused to recognize the employees’ decision.

Another “rigged election” charge

For nearly a year, the Trumps have dragged out the process in appeal after appeal, trying to make the case that the workers rigged the election.
