Clinton Adds To Pile Of Iowa Endorsements

DES MOINES, IA - The highest-ranking woman Democratic elected official in Iowa endorsed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton on Monday, adding onto the pile of endorsements in the state despite Bernie Sanders' marked popularity and the potential entrance of Joe Biden into the race.

On Monday, Iowa State Senate President Pam Jochum, in a Des Moines Register editorial, became the 18th legislator to toss her early support behind Clinton. Jochum, a longtime legislator from Dubuque, chaired Barack Obama's leadership team in 2007 in the area.

Clinton also won over Attorney General Tom Miller and Treasurer Mike Fitzgerald—both Obama supporters in 2008. Former U.S. Senator Tom Harkin, U.S. Rep. Dave Loebsack, and current U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack, who previously served as governor of Iowa, also backed Clinton this summer.

In the U.S. Senate, 30 of the 44 Democratic members have formally endorsed Clinton's run, including Sander's fellow senator from Vermont, Patrick Leahy. And she has the support of more than 100 House members.

From October 5th, so the article is before Sanders picked up his first congressional endorsement (Has him still listed at zero in the article).

Again, in my opinion, Clinton is trying to freeze out Biden on both endorsements and superdelegates in case he is still waffling on entering the race. To end this the same way as the Minnesota endorsement post, October has been quite the month for Clinton.
