Ten Races to Watch and What Working Families Did to Impact Them
The California Labor Federation and its affiliated unions and Central Labor Councils have targeted ten legislative races this year. With help from 20,000 volunteer shifts, we have launched a massive eight-week ground campaign to protect three seats for working family advocates and win another seven for new champions. These races will be among the closest in the state, and the work done by union volunteers may well make the difference by the time polls close tonight. The races and union activity totals are:
