Got polled this morning on union-related subjects. Although the pollster denied it, the phrasing of the questions indicated to me that they were affiliated with the AFSCME or AFL-CIO. A lot of the early questions were about working conditions, etc, but as the questions got more specific, they started being slanted so as to refer to the SEIU negatively. Also got a new mailer in yesterday:

Curiously, one of the poll questions was “Do you feel that either of the unions is running a negative campaign against the other?” Gosh, what might make me think that….

In a brief administrative note, I promised some data today and intend to post on an article Kevin Whited over at BlogHouston pointed out, but it looks like it will be delayed, as I have to deal with a malfunctioning computer. Sorry all. 🙁
