Ricky Martin endorses Clinton
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) — Pop star Ricky Martin is backing Hillary Rodham Clinton ahead of Puerto Rico’s primary on Sunday.
The Grammy-winning singer on Wednesday said Clinton has shown a commitment to the needs of the Hispanic community.
Martin is one of the territory’s top-selling artists, whose hits including “She Bangs” and “Livin’ la Vida Loca.”
Clinton recently wrapped up a three-day campaign swing in Puerto Rico and is expected to return Friday. Her family has been campaigning there in her absence.
On Wednesday former President Clinton encountered nearly as many picture-snapping American tourists as Puerto Rican voters as he strolled through a narrow street in colonial Old San Juan.
“Right now, I’m just trying to get a big turnout,” Bill Clinton told The Associated Press as he and his daughter Chelsea worked a crowd of cheering onlookers along a rope line.
I heard that former bandmates Carlos, Oscar and Ricky Meléndez are still holding out for Chris Dodd to re-enter the race.
