Tester endorses Clinton for president

[RandySF]

Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont., on Friday endorsed Hillary Clinton for president, calling for Democratic Party unity to get her elected in November and bringing comments from some supporters of her rival, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, that they were disappointed in his decision.

“Hillary is the most qualified person on the ballot to unite our nation at a time when dangerous rhetoric threatens to divide us,” said Tester, who is serving as a superdelegate at the Democratic National Convention in July. He said via email that he is looking forward to working with her to create jobs, strengthen the middle class, keep the country safe and invest in education and infrastructure to advance the country.

A spokesman for Gov. Steve Bullock said Friday the governor would support Clinton as well.

“He has said all along he'll be supporting the Democratic nominee,” Jason Pitt said. “Now that a candidate has secured the nomination, he will be supporting her.”
