Marla Reaches for Union Voters

Democratic candidates have often used references to labor unions in their speeches and literature since the two have historically had strong ties. You don't make the same connection with labor unions and Republican candidates.

Though the labor unions officially will go Democrat, their members will often go with the candidate if they feel that that candidate supports the union. Party membership is less of a factor in the decision.

In Marla Irving's latest mailing she is seen at the podium proudly displaying the UAW logo. It was obvious attempt at getting the union vote. But she missed something. When trying to get the union vote its best to have your flyers printed in a union shop with a union bug on it. Marla didn't do that.
