Joe Biden may be losing some ground in the polls to the more progressive Democratic presidential candidates but he still holds sway with the party loyalists. And endorsements in the past few weeks continue to show his strength with that group.

Biden has received a litany of endorsements ranging from former Vermont Governor Peter Shumlin this week to former Democratic candidate for the 2020 nomination Rep. Tim Ryan to more than 130 foreign policy officials.

Even as the former vice president announced his intention to run for the Democratic nomination, he scored a large number of endorsements from members of Congress from around the country, including senators from his native state of Pennsylvania and Delaware, a state he represented in Congress for over 30 years.

And Biden has far more endorsements from party elites than any other Democratic contender.
