Joines Also for Obama?
Speaking of mayoral endorsements…
Winston-Salem Mayor Allen Joines said he is leaning toward Barack Obama over Hillary Clinton, although he has not yet made a formal endorsement. Joines said he has talked with Durham Mayor Bill Bell (who endorsed Obama last year) about forming a group of North Carolina mayors in support of Obama. Obama will visit Greensboro tomorrow, but Joines said he has not heard anything from the campaign about an Obama visit to Winston-Salem.
Under the Dome notes that Obama has the support of most of North Carolina’s major Democratic mayors.
