LOS ANGELES — Dancers at a topless dive bar in North Hollywood holding a historic union election expected results Monday. They will need to wait a while longer.
The National Labor Relations Board said Monday that a majority of the ballots were challenged by the club, Star Garden, and the labor board couldn’t complete a tally.
The announcement was a blow for the group of strippers seeking to join Actors’ Equity Association, a century-old union that represents actors and stage managers on Broadway and at venues such as the Hollywood Pantages Theatre. The effort represents a move by an established union to bring historically marginalized workers into the fold of organized labor.
