Barack Obama is throwing his weight behind more than a dozen Texas Democratic candidates vying to flip congressional and state House seats.

The former president released his first wave of 2020 endorsements on Monday in a Medium post that included endorsements for candidates around the country.

In Texas, eight congressional candidates were endorsed. They include Sima Ladjevardian (TX-02), Wendy Davis (TX-21), Candace Valenzuela (TX-24), Gina Ortiz Jones (TX-23), Sri Preston Kulkarni (TX-22), Adrienne Bell (TX-14), and incumbents Lizzie Fletcher (TX-07) and Colin Allred (TX-32).

Obama also endorsed 19 candidates running in the Texas House, now only nine seats away from a Democratic majority.

1. In a New York minute Justice Democrats started bashing the list on Twitter, complaining about....

...."omissions".

1. They didn't read the heading, it's the FIRST WAVE!
2. They laughed that Obama didn't endorse Chuck Schumer. Schumer isn't running for re-election until TWO THOUSAND TWENTY TWO, two years from now!!!!!!!!!!!!
