The fact that they count x million members is a straw man.
This service union does not control its members vote.

Sure the controllers at the top level can do all of that and pour their money into the election, the fact is that when a voter enters the voting booth the vote is private unless these unions have found a way to spy on the voter as they vote. That I have not heard of.

So this is just one of Obama's 527's or whatever number you want to give it.
