representative of the bargaining unit; (c) Any other labor organization that, on or before the date that is prescribed by

the rules adopted by the Board, files with the Board a written request to be placed

on the ballot for the election and includes with the written request a list of its

membership or other evidence showing that the labor organization has been authorized

to serve as a representative by at least 30 percent of the employees within the bargaining

unit; and (d) A choice for “no representation.” 2. If a ballot for an election contains more than two choices and none of the choices

the initial election or at any runoff election, the Board shall designate the bargaining

unit as being without representation. 4. If a labor organization receives a majority of the votes cast at the initial election

or at any runoff election, the Board shall designate the labor organization as the

exclusive representative of the bargaining unit.
