I wonder how far the tentacles reach, Let’s say a union guy (or girl) is married with 3 kids aged 19, 21 & 24. The family doesn’t want Mom/Dad to loose wages so they vote the favorable to the Union (can’t blame them). That is a total of 5 votes for one union guy. That doesn’t include extended family, let’s say the guys 2 parents are alive, that’s 7 votes for one Union guy. I think most elderly are favorable to Unions as well since they did serve a needed purpose historically
Ohio is a very industrial state with very strong union roots, not sure what the % of union workers are in Ohio but I’m willing to bet it is very high………
