Viral photo shows Elizabeth Warren doing 'pinky promise' with young girl

A photo going viral online showed Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D) and a young girl sharing a “pinky promise” at her recent campaign rally in Arizona earlier this week. In the photo shared on Twitter Friday, the Democratic presidential candidate is seen crouching down to talk to the young girl.

There are a number of reasons why I love, admire and will fight for @ewarren, but a picture is worth a thousand words. #TeamWarren #Warren2020 pic.twitter.com/mM8xFx4qq1

The photo was tweeted by Garrick McFadden, an attorney from Phoenix and the father of the six-year-old, who also briefly ran for representative of Arizona's Sixth Congressional District last year.

Warren retweeted the photo shortly after on Friday night, writing: “Whenever I meet a little girl, I say: ‘I’m running for president, because that’s what girls do,’ and we pinky promise so they’ll remember.”

McFadden told The Hill on Saturday that the photo was taken at the senator’s recent rally in Tempe after a staffer with her campaign picked his family and others out for pictures with Warren at the end of the event.
