A local politician is among a group from Western Pennsylvania who recently announced support for a candidate in the presidential election.
Butler County Commissioner Kevin Boozel is one of 12 politicians at the county level to endorse former Vice President Joe Biden.
Boozel is just beginning his second term as Commissioner and was joined in his endorsement of Biden by Commissioners in neighboring Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver, and Lawrence counties.
Democratic Representative Connor Lamb, whose district includes part of southern Butler County, and Democratic U.S. Senator Bob Casey have also announced their support of Biden.
Republican President Donald Trump won Butler County by over 20 points in 2016.
