Cory Booker endorses Joe Biden for president
Former Vice President Joe Biden has picked up an endorsement from yet another former Democratic rival.
Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) on Monday endorsed Biden for president, saying the former vice president "won't only win — he'll show there's more that unites us than divides us." In an email to supporters, Booker also said that "while I'm no longer running for president, I still know that to win, Democrats need a nominee who understands that the way to beat Donald Trump is to bring people together."

The New York Times reports Booker and Harris will both appear with Biden at a Monday night rally in Detroit, and Booker will also campaign with Biden in Flint, Michigan. Michigan is one of six states set to hold its primary on Tuesday, a week after Biden dominated on Super Tuesday and became the heavy favorite to win the Democratic nomination. A CNN poll of registered voters on Monday showed Biden leading Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) by 16 points nationally.
