Sanders withholds endorsement in Wisconsin gubernatorial bid

Sen. Bernie Sanders said on Pod Save America that he doesn’t expect to endorse Francesca Hong, the Democratic Socialist of America member running for Wisconsin governor, explaining he’s not that familiar with the race and has been focused on the Senate. He noted he hasn’t been involved in many governors’ races beyond Maine, where he endorsed Troy Jackson. The remark drew social-media mockery and commentary about his past endorsements; Hong’s campaign remains competitive in the primary and is expected to advance to a November race against Republican David Tiffany.
