WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Washington state Governor Jay Inslee endorsed Joe Biden’s presidential bid on Wednesday, praising his former Democratic rival's “willingness to follow science” in his approach to governing and tackling climate change.
The nod from Inslee, who had centered his own 2020 presidential bid on taking aggressive action to combat climate change, could lend Biden’s campaign credibility with the liberal voters he is courting as he tries to unify Democrats ahead of Nov. 3’s election against Republican President Donald Trump.
