Ten New York gay politicians are
expected to endorse Hillary Rodham Clinton's presidential ambitions
on Tuesday.
According to the New York Daily
News, among those backing Clinton are New York Senator Brad
Hoylman, Assembly members Deborah Glick and Daniel O'Donnell of
Manhattan, Harry Bronson of Rochester, and Matthew Titone of Staten
Island, and New York City Council members James Vacca, Daniel Dromm,
Corey Johnson, Rosie Mendez and James Van Bramer.

Three New York-based LGBT rights groups
are also backing Clinton for president: the Lesbian and Gay
Democratic Club of Queens, the Lambda Independent Democrats of
Brooklyn and the Gay and Lesbian Independent Democrats.
Last week, the
Human Rights Campaign (HRC), the nation's largest such group,
endorsed Clinton.
