Fascinating quote from the Financial Times, concerning unions endorsing Kamala Harris.
The fact that so many union presidents appeared on stage at the Democratic National Convention to endorse Harris should be understood to mean only that union presidents are in her corner. No inference should be drawn from it about the preferences of workers.
Old wisdom: don’t ask a question if you won’t like the answer. Union activists intend to support Democrats, so they don’t poll their members, many of whom prefer the GOP. And it is true that the existence of right-to-work laws - normally perceived as anti-union - is mostly thanks to the GOP.
