Supervisor Mark Campbell, chair of the Webster County Board of Supervisors, has endorsed presidential candidate Steve Bullock, Governor of Montana.

The Thursday endorsement accompanied three others in a growing list of rural and swing-county Democratic leaders to endorse the Democratic governor in a field of challengers just starting to see candidates drop out.

“Too often, politicians have walked away from rural and small communities like mine — but not Governor Bullock,” Campbell’s endorsement read. “Steve campaigns where others will not, and he connects with voters in a way that others cannot. That’s precisely the character we need leading our Democratic Party.”

He adds that Bullock has earned his support as a candidate who “will win back the places Democrats have lost and make sure the needs of rural and small-town Iowa are never forgotten.”

The moderate candidate, appearing in state and national polls this year with support in the low single-digits, has differentiated himself in a crowded field as the only candidate with both Governor’s experience and wins in a reliably red state that voted for Trump.
