Even and Côté-Mercier also founded the Union des électeurs in 1939 as a provincial party based on social credit theories and recruited Réal Caouette to the movement.

The movement was able to win a post World War II by-election under the Union des électeurs label, with Caouette being sent to the Canadian House of Commons.

Nevertheless, in the 1940s, Social Credit supporters in Quebec often ran under the name Union des électeurs, a social credit organization which had been formed in 1939 by Louis Even and Gilberte Côté-Mercier as the political arm of their religious organization, the Pilgrims of Saint Michael, and which had an on again, off again, relationship with the western-based national party as well as an inconsistent attitude towards electoral politics.

The Union des électeurs philosophy inspired an Ontario group, the " Union of Electors " led by Ron Gostick, to form in 1946 as a rival to the Ontario Social Credit League and run in the 1948 provincial election under the " Union of Electors " label.

Réal Caouette, a member of the Union des electeurs, won a 1946 by-election as a Social Credit MP and ran, unsuccessfully, for re-election as a Union des électeurs candidate in the 1949 federal election.

While Even's group ran candidates in the 1945 federal election under the national Social Credit banner and again in subsequent by-elections, by 1949 the Quebec créditistes were again running candidates under the Union des électeurs banner as they were also doing in the Quebec provincial elections.

After the 1948 election, the CIO took the fight one step further, expelling the ILWU, Mine, Mill, the Farm Equipment Union ( FE ), the Food and Tobacco Workers, and the Fur and Leather Workers after a series of internal trials in the first few months of 1950, while creating a new union, the International Union of Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers ( IUE ), to replace the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers ( UE ), which left the CIO.

The CP grew even more powerful within the UE in 1937 when James Matles, former head of the CP's Metal Workers Industrial Union, brought in a number of locals after a brief affiliation with the International Association of Machinists.

Matles and other CP members and allies held the bulk of the important positions within the UE for the next twelve years, until the CIO engineered a split within it in order to separate the Communist leaders from the CIO ; they continued to hold power thereafter within that portion of the union that was not raided by the International Union of Electrical Workers.

Persons associated with the CP did, in fact, exercise a good deal of influence in a number of CIO unions in the 1940s, both in the leadership of unions such as the ILWU, UE, Transport Workers Union of America and Fur and Leather Workers and in staff positions in a number of other unions.

After the 1948 election, the CIO took the fight one step further in 1950, expelling the ILWU, the Mine, Mill & Smelter Workers Union, the Farm Equipment Union, the Food and Tobacco Workers, and the Fur and Leather Workers, while creating a new union, the International Union of Electrical Workers, to replace the UE, which left the CIO rather than purge its leadership.

It suffered significant losses of membership through the 1950s to raids by other unions, in particular the International Union of Electrical Workers ( IUE ) which was set up by the CIO in 1949 with the goal of replacing UE.

Among the organizers and leaders of UE Local 107 at the Westinghouse South Philadelphia works were several former members of the Industrial Workers of the World ( IWW ).< ref > Matles, James J. and Higgins, James, < i > Them and Us: Struggles of a Rank-and-File Union </ i >, Prentice-Hall, Inc., 1974, hardcover, ISBN 0-13-913079-9 ; paperback reprint ISBN 0-13-913053-5, chapter 12 </ ref > While foes of UE in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s charged the union with " communist domination ," recent studies Stepan-Norris, Judith, and Zeitlin, Maurice, < i > Left Out: Reds and America's Industrial Unions </ i >, Cambridge University Press, 2003, hardcover ISBN 0-521-70212-6 ; paperback ISBN 0-521-79840-X </ ref > have demonstrated that UE was and remains one of the most democratic U. S. labor unions and that its policies differed markedly from those of the US Communist Party on a number of major issues during those decades.

Of the 11 " left " unions that were expelled or resigned from the CIO in 1949-50, only UE and the International Longshore and Warehouse Union remain in existence today.

In the case of UE, the CIO went a step further, chartering a rival union, the International Union of Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers ( IUE ), that would attempt to destroy and replace UE.

During World War II and continuing through the Cold War, UE took a more progressive position on women's rights than other unions, advocating " equal pay for equal work " during the war in successful suits against GE and Westinghouse before the War Labor Board and, after the war, resisting employers ' attempts to drive married women out of industry and to deny seniority and maternity leave to women workers .< ref > Lichtenstein, Nelson, < i > State of the Union </ i >, Princeton University Press, 2002, ISBN 0-691-05768-0, pp. 93-94 </ ref > The 1946 strike at GE was prolonged by the company's insistence on giving a smaller wage increase to its women employees, whom GE president Charles E.
