Rubio Now Leads In Endorsements

Sen. Marco Rubio now leads the GOP field in endorsements, according to FiveThirtyEight.

“There has been a lot of debate this presidential campaign about how much influence party elites have on the nominating process, but endorsements have historically been among the best signs of which candidates will succeed in primaries. And although four more endorsements and a slight lead in points1 do not make Rubio a lock as the choice of Republican elected officials, this bump is a sign that members of Congress could be starting to see him as the most acceptable option for the nomination.”
