PORTLAND, Maine — Some labor unions that helped U.S. Sen. Susan Collins win in 2014 say it’s too early to decide whether they’ll support her again in 2020 as her Democratic opponents courted workers over the Labor Day weekend.
Collins, a Republican, was supported by several labor unions in her last re-election race. Her campaign touted the endorsements heavily, and they were notable because unions typically support Democrats, though her race was uncompetitive and she won with two-thirds of votes.
Things could be different in 2020. Collins’ seat is expected the subject of one of the most expensive Senate campaigns of the 2020 cycle after her key October vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Democrats have used that vote to try to tie Collins — a pro-abortion rights Republican who voted against her party in 2017 to preserve the Affordable Care Act — to her more conservative colleagues on health care policy. But unions also took issue with his nomination.

It would not be good to see that happen even if he becomes another Roberts. She took the arrows this time around and she’s the best we could get.
I will never understand or care for some decision making out there.
“She voted for Brett Kavanaugh” a person not found guilty of any wrong doing, but orange man bad and he was called rapist soo.. metoo!
I hate this soviet style crap we’re seeing.
Partisan Media Shills update.
If she is re-elected we will not be able to count on her vote again.
15 I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other!
16 So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth.

If Ballsey Ford had given a date, time, location and witnesses, she could have been a star.

And we assume this is true because some media hack said so.
And in another media story, we have another angle that union bosses are fearful that their membership are going to tell the bosses to F*** Off and back Trump no matter what the bosses say or do.
Eastasia has always been our ally. We have always been at war with Eastasia.
Union leadership gives not one sh1t about their membership, as long as their money fills the boss’s coffers. They are another wing of the Democrat Party.
If she's not re-elected you won't be able to count on the new Senator's vote either.
They are threatening her not to repeat her Kavanaugh behavior when Ginsburg is replaced before her 2020 campaign.

Since I see Trump as the last American president to finish a term, I consider it all theater at this point. And that is assuming he finishes this one. I don’t really care who wins seats like this any more. Yes, I know the ramifications, but I think they will be here no matter what.
Of course I could be wrong, but since that is not my state, all Z can do is watch.
I wasn’t saying she should not be, just that we are running out of Senate votes we can count on.
If Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg croaks before the election we will not be able to count on her vote for anyone that President Trump nominates to replace her.

DITTO THAT.
Of course the dems are all going to campaign and vote against her either way, but if Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg croaks and she votes to confirm any replacement nominated by President Trump then the dems will work overtime organizing the illegal aliens' and dead people's vote against her.
“But unions also took issue with his nomination.”
Collins is a turd. She is important on Judges like Kavanaugh.
Rank and file Union members have NO say. This is the CORRUPT and LEFTIST Union leadership.
Kavanaugh, like corrupt Roberts, has been a disappointment.
