Abstract

In labor's 1998 Illinois election, union members consciously focused on class-based economic issues. Most intriguing is the finding that racially conservative white members voted for African-American Carol Moseley-Braun despite opposition to affirmative action. A potentially strong class voting bloc challenges unions to develop ever more effective ways of mobilizing their membership.
