AUSTIN, Minn. — Michael Bloomberg, Democratic presidential candidate, former New York City mayor and billionaire – came to Texas this weekend, and he stopped in Austin.
He is kicking off a "National Day of Action" to motivate his staff and volunteers nationwide. That included a bus tour and a visit to the Lone Star State on Saturday, Jan. 11. He began his day in San Antonio before visiting Austin. He then ended his day in Dallas.
Bloomberg's campaign said he planned to open campaign offices during his visit.
Celebrity judge Judge Judy, who was endorsed Bloomberg, was at the event in Austin on Saturday to introduce the candidate.
Bloomberg is skipping the Iowa caucuses and instead focusing his resources on Texas because his campaign said the state has so many Democratic delegates.
