I think it could matter in some cases. Like if there was a local election and I didn't know the candidates very well but one was endorsed by the NAACP, I would be much more likely to vote for them.

I agree however, that for such large elections where everything is very publicized already, these endorsements don't do much. However, if it gets one person to vote that's positive.
