Registered nurses at Seattle Children’s Hospital voted overwhelmingly to authorize a strike, union officials said, as contract negotiations remain unresolved.

The vote authorizes the bargaining team to call a strike if negotiations do not result in what nurses describe as a fair contract.

If a strike is pursued, it would be the first in the hospital’s 118-year history.
