Labor Goes Republican Vote Shows Landslide Labor Shift
Analysis notes unions largely ignored the Democratic endorsement for Stevenson and backed Eisenhower for a second term. Eisenhower carried states with strong union presence, boosting Democratic gains in Michigan and Massachusetts while West Virginia elected Republicans. Labor supporters claim the results refute the view that Democrats are the party of labor. Proposals post election include overhauling Taft Hartley and expanding minimum wage and overtime coverage, facing likely Congressional opposition.
