Annnnd Butler residents have also won their union election, 33-3. Which means all three of the @carenewengland medical residents units have won their union elections today.
The @BrownUniversity medical residents employed at Women and Infants Hospital have won their union, 40-8. The union now represents all 64 house staff at that hospital. That's one of the @carenewengland union elections down today, and two more to go (Kent and Butler).
