This week in campaign history

Tuesday, November 2, 1969
Lindsay is Backed by Many in UFT in Switch from ’68

“A year ago, with most city schools shut by a lengthy strike, Mayor Lindsay was being bitterly denounced by officers and members of the United Federation of Teachers. Now although the leaders of the 56,000-member teachers’ union have maintain neutrality in the mayoral campaign, many members are actively supporting Mayor Lindsay’s bid for reelection. Other members are just as vigorously supporting his opponents — Controller Mario A Procaccino, Democratic-Non-Partisan, and State Senator John J. Marchi, Republican-Conservative. But the fact that an active Lindsay faction has emerged with the union has heartened the mayor’s forces.”
-The New York Times
