Curt Dial, attorney for 23-year-old Jorge Sanders-Galvez, says the “law applies the same whether we have one prosecutor or three prosecutors.” He was referring to Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ decision to assign hate crimes prosecutor Christopher Perras to assist at the first-degree murder trial.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The Latest on results determining the future of some Iowa union locals (all times local): 4:30 p.m.

An Iowa employment board has released more complete results from union elections linked to a new collective bargaining state law. The Iowa Public Employment Relations Board released data Wednesday afternoon that shows 436 union locals secured enough votes to keep representing public workers. Separately, 32 locals will essentially dismantle. The impacted workers will be barred from unionizing for two years.

In the end, more 28,400 workers voted by phone and online to keep union representation. A little over 620 voted for decertification of their locals. Those who didn’t participate, which totaled more than 4,000 people, were counted as “no” votes.

The elections are required under a provision of a collective bargaining law approved in February by the Republican-controlled Legislature. Unions now must hold so-called recertification elections before each new contract.
