Teamsters won't endorse in presidential race after releasing internal polling showing most
members support Trump


"It's the first time in nearly three decades that the union has not endorsed
a presidential
candidate."


It is the first time since 1996 that the Teamsters have not endorsed a candidate. The last time the
Teamsters endorsed a candidate that was not a Democrat was 1988.


"The nation's other major labor organizations, including the American Federation of Teachers and
the United Auto Workers, have backed Harris."


I wonder if the UAW polled their members before endorsing?

Teamsters won't endorse in presidential race after releasing internal polling showing most

There are other unions in New York state (aside from Teamsters) that likely have a majority of their members supporting Trump. But union members have a lot to lose by publicly endorsing the wrong candidate; it equates to talking about politics in the workplace. (And union meetings are just like work meetings.)
