Notably, the former president did not endorse liberal darling Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in her New York House race. In New York, Obama endorsed two candidates—House hopeful Antonio Delgado and Anna Kaplan for a state Senate seat. Obama earlier this year endorsed Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., who is in a tight Democrat-vs.-Democrat race against Kevin de Leon in November. After the Wednesday release, Obama tweeted the endorsements, as his office said another round would be coming before November. "No one's more to blame for how weak today's Democratic Party is than President Obama," Republican National Committee spokesman Michael Ahrens told Fox News.
