NASHVILLE — Hillary Clinton’s campaign today announced the endorsements of nearly 30 Chattanooga women ranging from state Rep. JoAnne Favors to well-known party supporter and donor Pris Siskin.
State Rep. JoAnne Favors is among the Democratic candidates up for election or re-election this year.
With Tuesday’s presidential primary in Tennessee on Tuesday, the Clinton campaign is rolling out what it says is a “diverse” group of political, community and business supporters in hopes of “underscoring the momentum” of the former U.S. secretary of state and U.S. senator in her primary fight with U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, D-Vt.
“Women in Chattanooga are excited about electing the most qualified candidate in this presidential election who has the vision and experience to deliver results that make a real difference for families across the state,” said Favors, who represents House District 28 in the campaign news release.
“We are urging all of our friends and neighbors to vote for Hillary Clinton so she carries Tennessee. I’m proud to stand behind the fighter for women, children, and all Americans,” Favors added.
