A top state senator just switched his endorsement from Hillary Clinton to Bernie Sanders
One of the top Democrats in the Georgia Senate backed Hillary Clinton for president — until Tuesday. That's when State Sen. Vincent Fort switched up his endorsement, going against the state's Democratic establishment to back Bernie Sanders, The Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.
"He's going to do well here. As people have a chance to listen to him, to have a chance to understand that he's speaking to the issues that are the most critical," Fort said. "As people study and listen to him, I think there's going to be movement toward his campaign."
