Log Cabin Republicans to Endorse Djou, Maybe Lingle

By /
DC808 reports:

The Log Cabin Republicans are set to endorse Charles Djou in his bid for Congress, the group’s executive director R. Clarke Cooper told DC808. That’s no surprise: Cooper called a Djou endorsement a “no brainer” earlier this year. 

Here’s what Cooper had to say when we ran into him at the launch party for BuzzFeed’s Washington, D.C., bureau on Wednesday night: ”Charles Djou we’ll be endorsing again, though we haven’t formally announced it,” Cooper said. “We met with Lingle — the governor was here, we met with her then. But it’s been a while.”

Cooper previously told DC808 that he wouldn’t rule out a Lingle endorsement.
