John Kasich Picks Up Endorsements in Pennsylvania

Former Pennsylvania Rep. Bob Walker Tuesday endorsed Ohio Gov. John Kasich for the Republican presidential nomination.

"I worked alongside John Kasich for 14 years, and throughout that time, Kasich was a leader, a visionary and a reformer," said Walker, the honorary chairman of the governor's campaign in the Keystone State. "Whether it was balancing the federal budget or reforming the Pentagon, John never shied away from a challenge, and was uniquely able to bring aboard both Republicans and Democrats to accomplish big things."

Walker served in Congress for two decades ending in 1997.

Other endorsements came from former state Sen. John Fox and Earl Baker, former chairman of the Pennsylvania Republican Party. They are among the co-chairs of Kasich's campaign in the state.
