Clyburn Endorses Joe Biden

February 26, 2020 at 9:37 am EST By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC) endorsed Joe Biden in the Democratic presidential race, which could give the former vice president a much-needed boost in the South Carolina primary race.

Said Clyburn: “I know Joe Biden. I know his character, his heart, and his record. Joe Biden has stood for the hard-working people of South Carolina. We know Joe. But more importantly, he know us. In South Carolina, we choose presidents. I’m calling on you to stand with Joe Biden.”
