Seattle Schools v. Seattle Education Association; Who's Bluffing?

Earlier today, I updated the thread on the teachers contracts around the state.  (FYI, in case you didn't realize it, ALL the districts in the state - because of the revisions due to McCleary - had to renegotiate their teachers contracts.  Hence the heavy activity.)

But I was over at Facebook and the district HAS issued this statement:

Scheduled negotiations between the Seattle Education Association (SEA) and Seattle Public Schools (SPS) ended Saturday, Aug. 25, 2018, without a tentative agreement. The hard working joint team has made good progress on many issues of common interest and on the difficult budget and compensation issues that confront us in Seattle Public Schools. 

The team is close to a tentative agreement that provides competitive and sustainable salaries for our educators, while confronting the realities of the district's significant revenue shortfall in 2019-20. 
Read a district budget update from Aug. 2, 2018.
 
We have openly shared our financial and budget analysis with the joint team since June as we worked together on every data request and budget detail underlying the compensation discussions. 

We believe our partnership with SEA in this process will lead to the very best educational outcomes for our students and families, including eliminating opportunity and achievement gaps. SEA has assured us that they will return to the negotiations on Wednesday morning; however, we have requested that SEA return to the negotiations immediately. 

Our expectation is that an agreement will be reached before school starts on September 5, 2018.

SEA yesterday:

No agreement tonight. Today was our last scheduled meeting. We'll vote on a strike authorization and action plan on Tuesday night at our Membership Meeting.

So, would SEA vote to strike when the district is still wanting to come to the table on Wednesday?  Why give up so soon or is the district not being willing to give and take?
