IBEW Endorses Francis for Mayor

Published: Wednesday, May 7, 2008 5:55 PM PDT

E-MAIL STORY

Steve Francis just picked up the endorsement of International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 569, his second individual labor union endorsement this week.

On Monday, he was endorsed by UNITE HERE, the union representing hotel and restaurant employees.

From here on out, all labor endorsements in the mayor's race will come from individual unions. The San Diego-Imperial Counties Labor Council announced Monday that it would not make an endorsement in the race.

The official announcement from the IBEW will come tomorrow morning at the union hall at 4545 Viewridge Avenue in San Diego.
