Marianne Williamson endorses Sanders

Former 2020 candidate Marianne Williamson made a surprise appearance at a Bernie Sanders rally in Austin, Texas, to endorse the Vermont senator's bid for the Democratic nomination. “Bernie Sanders has been taking a stand for a very long time,” she told the Sanders rally in Austin. “We’re here and we’re with Bernie” appearing at a rally in Texas with the progressive senator.

Williamson, an author and spiritual guru, dropped out of the 2020 race in January after failing to qualify for multiple debates. She'd previously backed Andrew Yang prior to him dropping out earlier this month.

Only a handful of former candidates have made endorsements in the race.
Former Vice President Joe Biden has picked up the backing of two former candidates - U.S. Representatives Seth Moulton and Tim Ryan. Julian Castro, the former federal housing chief, endorsed Senator Elizabeth Warren.
