Following the vote, their union president, Jack Leventhal, complimented them on their decision. Postal workers in many of the nation's largest cities voted similarly, ignoring President Nixon's Monday deadline for ending the walkout. Some of the smaller postal workers' locals, however, have voted to return to work.
