Card dealers at the casino owned by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation of Connecticut overwhelmingly approved a contract with the United Auto Workers.

Dealers at Foxwoods Resort Casino and MGM Grand at Foxwoods voted 1,035-355 in favor of the deal. Both sides hailed the results of the election.

"This agreement gives management the operational flexibility and cost controls necessary to remain competitive in the current economic climate," Michael Speller, the president of the Mashantucket Pequot Gaming Enterprise, said in a statement, according to news reports.

The contract was negotiated under tribal law.
