Teamsters decline to endorse presidential candidate

Source: Axios

“The International Brotherhood of Teamsters won’t endorse a presidential candidate this cycle, the union’s General Executive Board decided Wednesday. The decision is a blow to Democrats, who have historically enjoyed the Teamsters’ support, but there had been suspense over a possible endorsement this year after Sean O’Brien in July became the first-ever union president to speak at the Republican National Convention. The Teamsters endorsed President Biden in 2020, but when Biden was still the Democratic presidential nominee this cycle, the union was considering not endorsing either candidate. … Polling released by the union on Wednesday showed Trump with an edge over Harris among Teamsters members.” (09/18/24)
