SAG votes overwhelmingly to ratify contract

The Screen Actors Guild (SAG) membership has voted to ratify the proposed TV/Theatrical contract with the Alliance Of Motion Picture And Television Producers (AMPTP) with an enormous majority, surpassing the expectations of many observers who initially called it as a much closer race. The final tally was 78% voting “yes” to ratify, and 22% voting “no” to discard the contract and move forward to strike authorisation. The turnout was 35.26% of the 110,000 SAG members in good standing, and thus able to vote.
