Hillary Group: News guys on twitter are reporting that former U.S. Senator Don Riegle has endorsed..

Bernie Sanders, according to the Sanders' campaign.

He's a Flint MI native, so I guess that's good for Bernie.

He was also a member of the KEATING 5. The KEATING 5.

But hey, he'll say bad things about Hill and Bill.

… it seems to me that most Democrats in Michigan have either forgotten about him (it's been 20 years since he left office) or just don't hold him in high regard. People like Frank Kelley (our former attorney general) and former Governor Jim Blanchard (now Active in Hillary's campaign) are held in higher esteem.

How many votes will this get for Bernie? I put the over/under at five votes.
