                             TITLE 29--LABOR
 
                CHAPTER I--NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD
 
PART 101_STATEMENTS OF PROCEDURES--Table of Contents
 
  Subpart E_Referendum Cases Under Section 9(e) (1) and (2) of the Act
 
Sec. 101.29  Procedure respecting election conducted without hearing.

    If the Regional Director determines that the case is an appropriate 
one for election without formal hearing, an election is conducted as 
quickly as possible among the employees and upon the conclusion of the 
election the Regional Director makes available to the parties a tally of 
ballots. The parties, however, have an opportunity to make appropriate 
challenges and objections to the conduct of the election and they have 
the same rights, and the same procedure is followed, with respect to 
objections to the conduct of the election and challenged ballots, as has 
already been described in subpart C of the Statements of Procedure in 
connection with the postelection procedures in representation cases 
under section 9(c) of the Act, except that no provision is made for a 
runoff election. If no such objections are filed within 7 days and if 
the challenged ballots are insufficient in number to affect the results 
of the election, the Regional Director issues to the parties a 
certification of the results of the election, with the same force and 
effect as if issued by the Board.
