SEIU Endorses Blouin For Gov.
DrewMiller.net: Blouin Endorsement:
Service Employees International Union [endorses Mike Blouin For Governor]. The SEIU is the biggest union in the nation, although in Iowa it clocks in at a relatively modest five thousand members. I don’t have any idea what makes Blouin more of a friend of unions than any of the other candidates. But I’ll find out!
The most important union endorsement will be AFSCME, with Blouin being the obvious favorite for them too due to their Values Fund connections. The big unions would be stupid to endorse before the January fundraising numbers come out, though. We probably won’t see any other endorsements this year.

The SEIU knows a winner when it sees it.

Has Vilsack endorsed anyone yet…..or is he still too busy polishing Hillary’s silverware at DLC soiree’s.

Vilsack says he isn’t going to endorse anyone. However, the speculation is that he is pulling for Blouin behind the scenes….which is yet another example of how gutless Vilsack is.
