Rep. Tom Malinowski endorsed Joe Biden, raising the number of vulnerable congressional Democrats backing the former vice president’s White House bid to more than half a dozen.
Malinowski and the other Democrats have latched onto Biden in a bid to avoid being swept from their battleground districts by President Trump this year. Trump lost Malinowski’s suburban, Northern New Jersey district by just 1.1 percentage points in 2016. The endangered Democrats are concerned that a Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren candidacy would sink their reelection in competitive seats won or lost narrowly by Trump.
