Former Democratic presidential candidate Marianne Williamson, who was a major supporter of Bernie Sanders in 2016, is endorsing the Vermont senator for president.
The spiritual guru, bestselling author and Texas native made the announcement Sunday at a rally in Austin. It was the last of four rallies Sanders held in Texas this weekend coming off his victory in the Nevada caucus, cementing his status as the front-runner in the Democratic field.
“It’s time for us to take a stand with Bernie,” Williamson said. “It’s our turn now.”
Williamson ended her campaign in January, saying at the time she did not want to make it tougher for a progressive to win. She had barely registered in the polls and struggled in fundraising since launching her bid for president last January.
