Members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus are preparing to endorse Hillary Clinton for president in an effort to help her campaign secure critical Hispanic votes in next weeks Super Tuesday primaries.
Members of the groups political arm, CHC BOLD-PAC, began polling members Thursday evening to determine if they had sufficient support before announcing their endorsement, which could come as early as Friday morning. Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders have been battling it out for the Latino vote, a crucial voting block in November. And Clinton is relying on minority voters like Latinos and African-Americans to help propel her to the Democratic nomination.
There was a recommendation for Hillary to receive the nomination for endorsement, said BOLD-PAC executive committee member Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.), the Hispanic Caucus whip.
It was pretty easy, Gallego said. For most of us that have either been involved with immigration issues or Latino issues, none of us have any history with Bernie.

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton just clinched another endorsement from top Hispanic Democrat Rep. Ben Ray Luján of New Mexico, days before voters cast their ballots in a slew of Super Tuesday states next week.
"Hillary has the determination to defend and expand our country's economic and social progress, and to continue to break down barriers and move our country forward so that opportunity reaches everyone," Luján, the second most senior Hispanic member of Congress and a former vice chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, said in a statement Friday. "Every job matters to Hillary and she believes all Americans should have the dignity of a paycheck to raise their families, put a roof over their head, and store away a little money for their children's education at the end of each month."
Luján, who serves as chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee in charge of electing Democrats to the House in 2016, also pointed to Clinton's electability ratings as one reason she's drawn his support.
"Hillary has strength, compassion and a sense of responsibility to care for others that is second to none," Luján said. "She has what it takes to connect with a diverse group of voters across the country and will fight to motivate and unite people behind her, which will benefit all Democrats come November."
