Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton has endorsed 2016 Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton for president.

“Throughout her career, Hillary Clinton has time and again delivered progressive results that matter for hard working families," Stanton said in a written statement released to The Arizona Republic. "She’s long been a friend to mayors across the country and as president, Phoenix families will have an ally in the White House who will work to attract more high-paying jobs, try to close the skills gap, make college affordable, lower health care costs and help them save more for retirement.

"I’m proud to endorse Hillary Clinton for president because as we’ve seen during her campaign, she’ll be a president who will have a policy agenda that addresses what keeps Phoenix families up at night and be a tireless fighter for their priorities.”

Clinton, a former U.S. secretary of State and U.S. senator from New York, is facing U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley in the Democratic presidential race.

1. I am really glad to see this. AZ just might

be in play in the GE, especially with the way the GOP has gone out of their way to alienate Hispanic voters.

Thank you for posting this.
