The two St. Louis Democratic legislators battling for the 5th District state Senate seat in the Aug. 5 primary – state Reps. Robin Wright-Jones and Rodney Hubbard — each rolled out some additional endorsements today.

Wright-Jones announced that NARAL Pro-Choice Missouri, an abortion-rights group,  was in her camp.

“Now that NARAL PAC has voted to endorse my candidacy, my campaign has received the support of the vast majority of organized labor, women’s groups, the state’s largest moderate and low income community group, and the state’s largest LGBT rights organization. These groups make up the backbone of Democratic politics and I am delighted that St. Louis’ progressive forces have decided to present a united front, against Rep. Hubbard’s campaign,” Said Wright-Jones.

Meanwhile, Hubbard announced that he was endorsed Tuesday night by the 28th Ward Democrats.

In a jab at his rival, Hubbard said that he had three times as many ward endorsements.

“I’ve represented part of the 28th Ward in the state Legislature for six years and understand its progressive values, especially when it comes to education reform,” said Hubbard. “I have worked closely with Alderwoman Lyda Krewson, Committeeman Joe Keaveny, and Committeewoman Betul Ozmat over the years and am proud to have their support.”

Hubbard said he has the support of 13 ward organizations and unified ward committees (including his opponent’s own ward), versus Wright-Jones’ four.
