Bill de Blasio to Endorse Bernie Sanders for President: Report
Mayor of New York Bill de Blasio will reportedly endorse Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) for president at some point this month.
According to the New York Times, which cited people familiar with the plans, de Blasio is expected to travel with Mr. Sanders on Sunday and Monday in Nevada, where they will appear together at canvassing events ahead of the caucuses there on Feb. 22.
As of Friday, however, the timing of the mayors endorsement was still being hashed out.
Last year, de Blasio himself was also running for the Democratic nomination, though quickly ended his campaign in September.
I feel like Ive contributed all I can to this primary election, and its clearly not my time, he said at the time. So Im going to end my presidential campaign, continue my work as mayor of New York City and Im going to keep speaking up for working people and for a Democratic party that stands for working people.

That's one big delegate haul.
