COKE STRIKE COULD EXPAND

The Teamsters Local 175 strike against Coca-Cola could last a while, and even expand outside of the state.  There has been no movement on a new deal and over 100 workers are on strike as of midnight last night.  The picket lines are expected to expand from Charleston and Logan, out to other places such as Bluefield, Clarksburg, Parkersburg and into Ohio.  Last time there was a similar strike against Coke, it lasted for 21-weeks back in 2000.
