While “actively campaigning” against a tentative agreement may be another unlawful form of torpedoing, the level of dissenting bargaining team members’ active campaigning that would be sufficient to prove a union’s bad faith remains an unresolved issue. We need not address that question under the facts presented herein as there is no evidence that the Association engaged in any kind of conduct that undermined the negotiations process.
