TheHill.com - AFL-CIO to target a million voters this week
DENVER -- AFL-CIO officials have kicked off their push to introduce Barack Obama to union voters in 24 “priority” states, unveiling a mail piece that will go out to more than a million swing voters in four states this week.
Union officials say that many union voters remain unfamiliar with Obama, the Illinois senator who is expected to receive the Democratic presidential nomination on Thursday. “This is the biggest grassroots effort in history,” said Karen Ackerman, political director of the AFL-CIO. “[The mail piece] will hit mail boxes this week as Obama accepts the nomination.”
