Biden racks up union endorsements ahead of crucial primaries

[RandySF]

Joe Biden this week rolled out endorsements from unions in a slew of upcoming crucial primary states, a move intended to burnish the former vice president’s support among white, working-class voters.

Biden’s presidential campaign announced support from unions in Michigan, Mississippi and Missouri, whose primaries this coming Tuesday will allocate a combined 229 pledged delegates, and Florida and Illinois, which will apportion 219 and 155 pledged delegates on March 17, respectively.

Overall, the campaign this week rolled out endorsements from Unite HERE! Local 24 and United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) Locals 876 and 951 in Michigan, UFCW Local 1529 in Mississippi, UFCW Locals 655, 88, and 2 in Missouri, UFCW Local 1625 in Florida and UFCW Local 881 in Illinois.

The groups combined represent well over 100,000 workers from a range of industries, including hospitality, retail, food processing and more.
