- Local Unions feel that their endorsements of candidates will change the election outcome
- A Union�endorsement could mean financial support and campaign manpower
- Election is set for tomorrow
The Memphis Police Association Union is spending tens of thousands of dollars this year�endorsing and financially backing several candidates.
"I see people scrambling.� I see an incumbent mayor standing on street corners.� That doesn't normally happen," said Williams.
The Police Union as well as the Fire Union believe their endorsements will decide Thursday's municipal elections.
"We feel like it's going to come�through and we might just change the complexion of city council," said Larry Anthony with the Fire Union.
When a candidate is endorsed by a union they usually donate money, campaign, and recommend their members vote for their slate of candidates.�
That's something that could make the difference in a tight race.
"We've knocked on doors, we've made the phone calls, we've handed out the literature.�
The playbook is out there and we've played by it," said Joe Norman with the Fire Union.
