With poll numbers sagging in Iowa and New Hampshire days before the primary starts, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton gets a push with an endorsement from the New York Times.

“The Times editorial board has endorsed her three times for federal office — twice for Senate and once in the 2008 Democratic presidential primary — and is doing so again with confidence and enthusiasm,” the editorial reads.

The Times acknowledged that the rise of Bernie Sanders has had a salubrious effect on the race, bringing issues like income inequality into the fore.
