| Description | Gov. Mike Beebe will endorse New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, a former Arkansas first lady, next week in her bid for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination, sources said Friday.
Sources close to Clinton's campaign told The Associated Press that Beebe would make the announcement at an event Monday in the state Capitol. The sources spoke on condition of anonymity to avoid pre-empting Beebe's public announcement.
Beebe spokesman Matt DeCample said the governor would appear with Clinton at an event at the Capitol Monday afternoon, but would not say whether Beebe would endorse her.
Clinton has already won the backing of top Democrats in Arkansas, where husband Bill Clinton served 12 years as governor before beginning two terms as president in 1993.
Attorney General Dustin McDaniel is chairing Hillary Clinton's campaign in the state and she has won the endorsement of four of the five Democratic members of the state's congressional delegation.
