never ceases to amaze me that most union workers vote republican. the same party that wants to bust up the unions. but those factory workers are more scared of losing their guns than their jobs.

I think you're wrong here. Far and away, most union workers vote Democrat.

granted, i only worked in one union shop, but i'd guess about 95% of the guys on that floor were republicans. and that might be low.

there were roughly 500 union employees that worked there, so not a tiny sample size.

Well, since Republicans historically have never done a fucking thing to better a union man's life, and Democrats always have.......

I don't know what to say, other than your shop was an anomaly. I don't live where you do, so you know what goes on there, not me.

oh, i completely agree they SHOULD vote for dems. and union management, of course, always supports dems. but the actual workers? hell no. again, this was just one factory.

as we know, most republican voters are voting against their own best interests. and this was a blatant case of that.
