Wendy Davis endorses Hillary Clinton

San Antonio Express-News: Wendy Davis backs a presidential candidate

Former state Sen. Wendy Davis is continuing a bigger step back into the public arena with a public endorsement Wednesday of presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

She called Clinton “an inspiration to me” in campaign email last year, and she boosted her in a “ready for Hillary” email after losing her own race, before Clinton announced for the White House.

Davis, who told the Express-News soon after her loss that she planned to stay involved and likely would be a candidate again for some office.

She since has weighed in on issues including women’s health, given talks and said she is planning a national initiative related to gender equality. She recently gave an interview to Rolling Stone in which she reiterated her interest in running for office again.

foolishly thinking for the 2016 election cycle only, she still had my support. Like they say, politics can change in an instant.
