Virginia Foxx endorses Romney
WINSTON-SALEM (AP) — U.S. Representative Virginia Foxx is endorsing former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney in his bid for the White House.
Foxx said Friday that she is supporting the Republican for his "leadership, experience, vision and values." The two-term representative from North Carolina's 5th District cited Romney's work to enforce immigration laws, reform health care and protect values.
Foxx isn't the first Republican in the state's congressional delegation to endorse a presidential candidate. Representative Sue Myrick has endorsed former Senator Fred Thompson, and Senator Richard Burr is supporting Arizona Senator John McCain.
The state's seven Democrats have all endorsed former North Carolina Senator John Edwards.
