From the Associated Press

With four of the most challenging years in the United Auto Workers union’s history in front of him, Ron Gettelfinger was elected to a second term as UAW president.

Gettelfinger, 61, who joined the union as a chassis line repairman, will lead the union through what may be contentious 2007 contract talks with the Big Three domestic manufacturers.

He also must deal with corporate downsizing plans and continued efforts to move labor to countries with lower wages.
