The Service Employees International Union released its list of endorsements which offer perhaps some of the most conservative choices to date from any of the various labor union picks to date, including Eric Crafton and Ken Jakes in the at-large race, as well as Republicans Duane Dominy and Robert Duvall in the district races against some of their more progressive, union-friendly supporters.
I spoke with Freda Player with the SEIU who explained that with regards to Ken Jakes, his populist message resonated with many of their membership (he is a Man of the People after all) and Duvall, while conservative politically, has been with them on many issues when they needed him to be.

US Rep Chris Smith is strongly backed by the Unions and votes their agenda though he would, by most, be considered a conservative.
