If your union endorses a candidate, will you vote for that candidate?

Question

The SEIU union has endorsed hillary for president. The SEIU has almost 2 million members and conducts phone campaigns, mailings, and rallies in support of their candidates. If you are a union member, would you vote for the candidate your union endorses?

Answer 1

Only if the canidate is my choice

Answer 2

John, last time I checked, Hillary had 12 union endorsements and Edwards had 4.

I may be completely wrong, though. I hope I am.

Answer 3

I would but that wouldn't influence my vote on way or another. I'm voting for John Edwards, not because he has more Union endorsements than Hillary, but because I think he would do a better job, so it's just a coincedence.

Answer 4

Of course I wouldn't let my union decide for me! Last election, I was a teacher, and of course the liberal NEA backed Kerry. That was, until his wife made a remark about Laura Bush, wondering if she ever had a "real job" in the past. Mrs. Bush had been a teacher. The NEA wasn't happy about that.

Answer 5

It's a "secret ballot" for a reason! Vote for the person of your choicem not the Political Party or "who" a Union chooses!

Answer 6

I would never vote for the candidate my or any union endorses.

Answer 7

i am a union member
i would not vote for the candidate endorsed by the union if that's not who i want to vote for.

Answer 8

NO. For 30 years, I got newsletters from my Union telling me who to vote for. I almost never took their advice.

Answer 9

Not based solely on the endorsement. I use my own mind to make this decision.

Answer 10

No unless thats the candidate I want.
