Does anyone know who MI-01 candidate Lon Johnson is supporting for president?
Last night, socialist Bernie Sanders beat FBI target Hillary Clinton in the Indiana primary and has vowed to take the Democratic nomination fight all the way to the convention floor.
But Lon Johnson hasn’t made it clear who he supports. He’s been seen campaigning with Bernie Sanders and has praised Hillary Clinton saying, “If it is Hillary, I don’t think we’ve had a more experienced, more able, nominee in our party’s history.”
Bernie Sanders walloped Hillary Clinton in MI-01, 59% to 38%. So will Lon Johnson #FeelTheBern and vote for a socialist or will he say #ImWithHer and proudly support an FBI Target?
NRCC Comment: “Since Lon Johnson has publicly campaigned with Bernie Sanders and publicly supported Hillary Clinton, he should clarify who he is supporting for President. Will Johnson join Democratic voters in Michigan’s 1st District by supporting Sanders, or will Johnson snub his Democratic base to support Hillary?” –NRCC Spokesman Chris Pack
