Warren earns endorsements from over 100 Latino leaders

WASHINGTON — Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren announced more than 100 endorsements from Latina, Latino and Latinx community leaders on Thursday. The list include New York Assemblywoman Rep. Catalina Cruz, who was brought to the U.S. undocumented as a child, award-winning writer and poet Elizabeth Acevedo and Rosie Castro, the mother of Julián and Joaquin Castro — both of whom recently endorsed Warren.

The endorsers come from more than a dozen states, including Iowa, as well as influential Super Tuesday states like California and Texas.

“I am grateful for the support of this list of Latina, Latino and Latinx leaders who have made incomparable gains for their communities and continue to trailblaze for the good of everyone,” Warren said in a statement provided exclusively to NBC. “I am proud to stand with them in this fight for big, structural change.”

2. Well, I'm a Warren fan, for sure!

I'm hoping she comes on strong in these upcoming primaries and ends up as our nominee. It is a long-shot, but she'd be SO good.

4. Good for her, and them. All Hispanic support for Democrats

is great and much needed, and seems that most support for Warren is positive and aspirational, as she is, and comparatively little of it negative.

Down in Texas, I was just reading, Castro's own endorsers split on who they endorsed, with speculation of what it means that they did not follow Castro's lead. But it seems a positive, healthy split for our party. Three endorsed Warren, as the OP indicates, and another 9 endorsed Biden. One, Castro's deputy campaign manager, endorsed Sanders. One thing we know, at least all but one, but likely all, would support either Warren and Biden in the GE.

ABCNews.com: Martinez, who represents part of Texas that runs along the U.S.-Mexico border, and is secretary of the Mexican American Legislative Caucus, said he initially supported Castro because he wanted a candidate who would represent Latinos. But given Castro’s decision to leave the race, he switched his support to the candidate he thinks is most likely to win. The decision was not about Warren, Martinez said. “It's about, you know, I feel confident with who I feel I can support and who I want to support.
