Endorsement Watch - Teamsters Union
Mr. Obama secured the endorsement yesterday of the 1.4 million member Teamsters Union, giving him a boost among working class voters that have been part of Mrs. Clinton's core constituency. "He is the candidate in the best position to lead our movement to restore the American dream for working people in this country," the Teamsters president, James Hoffa, said in a statement. The endorsement was announced following a meeting in Austin, Texas, and a month-long process that included scientific member polls and other surveys and deliberations, the union said.
