March 16 (Reuters) - A group of technicians at Nissan Motor Co's (7201.T) Smyrna, Tennessee, factory voted overwhelmingly against joining a union on Thursday, marking yet another defeat for organized labor in the U.S. South. The tool and die workers in a 62-9 vote rejected a campaign by the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM), according to results announced by the U.S. National Labor Relations Board. The union has five days to file objections to the election results.
