Two more top Delaware Democrats are endorsing Hillary Clinton for president after Vice President Joe Biden bowed out of a 2016 campaign last week.
Delaware Congressman John Carney and U.S. Sen. Tom Carper are now backing Clinton's campaign.
Gov. Jack Markell, also a Democrat,endorsed Clinton last week. All three had pledged to support Biden if he had entered the race.
Carney, a front-runner in Delaware's 2016 race for governor, said in an interview that Clinton is the best candidate to "carry the Democratic banner."
"She's had an incredible career in public service," said Carney, citing her work as first lady, as a U.S. senator from New York and as secretary of state under President Obama.
Carper, who was elected to the U.S. Senate with Clinton in 2000, said he delivered his endorsement when he called Clinton on Monday to wish her a happy birthday. “Out of deference and respect for another dear friend, Joe Biden, I withheld endorsing Hillary until today. Now that Joe has decided not to run, I am prepared to give Hillary my full and enthusiastic support," Carper said in a statement.
"She is the best candidate for the job as president, and I fully expect she will be elected next November."
