Brian Poindexter is removed from endorsement lists of two Democratic groups

Published Updated



Rep.-elect Brian Poindexter (D-OH) was removed from two Democratic groups’ endorsement lists, marking an enigmatic turn of events for the new lawmaker after he had managed to land support from both progressive and centrist caucuses.

Poindexter pulled off a close victory in last week’s midterm elections, ousting Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) from Ohio’s 7th Congressional District to flip the seat blue. At the time, Poindexter enjoyed backing from the moderate Blue Dog Coalition in the House, as well as the Congressional Progressive Caucus PAC.
