UPDATED 12:15 P.M. with Wentzville voting results

General Motor Corp.’s Wentzville workers approved revisions to the United Auto Workers labor contract, a union representative said today.

The changes passed with a 59 percent approval rate, said Tom Brune, the sourcing representative for UAW Local 2250, which represents more than 1,700 hourly workers at the full-size van plant. The Wentzville results were not available Thursday night.

The revised agreement was approved nationally, with 74 percent voting in favor, the UAW said in a press conference.
