Liberal Democrat Foster Campbell – “a darling of left-wing activists,” already voted for Hillary Clinton in November.
Now, Campbell is making it clear that he wants to vote with radical progressive Elizabeth Warren in the United States Senate.
As The Washington Free Beacon reports, Campbell’s largest contribution in the past month came from Warren.
Elizabeth Warren bought into Foster Campbell’s campaign because Foster Campbell bought into Elizabeth Warren’s reckless agenda:
Like Warren, Campbell opposes Trump’s proposed border wall and is against repealing Obamacare. Campbell is also a self-described populist with a “fondness” for bashing the oil industry and other large corporations.
Foster Campbell’s reliance on Elizabeth Warren’s checkbook provides voters with all the proof they need to conclude that he is the Louisiana surrogate for her ultra-left-wing priorities.

Louisiana’s Foster Campbell is running for the Senate as a “conservative” Democrat, but his largest contribution in the past month came from the Senate’s most liberal member, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.).
Campbell’s bid to win this weekend’s runoff election in a state where Donald Trump won by 20 points hinges on his ability to win Republican-leaning voters. He has stated he is “pro-Second Amendment and pro-life,” putting him at odds with most of his party, but his status as the Democrats’ last hope to make gains this election has made him a darling of left-wing activists since Election Day.
One of those activists is Warren, who contributed $5,000 to Campbell through her PAC for a Level Playing Field on Nov. 18, according to his campaign’s most recent campaign filing.
