Washington (CNN) Even before Clinton declared his presidential bid earlier this year, more than 60% of Democratic senators had already endorsed her run.
Note: Only Senator Feinstein offices know about the murders near me and the growing FBI case.
In Sept 2014 my relatives were murdered in Mormon Country (UT). Labeled a murder suicide and the doors closed by the Mormon Machinery was getting oiled by the election process.
Here is the latest list of senators backing Clinton:
Sen. Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin - Signed a letter with all other female senators backing a Clinton run
Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey - Booker told NBC News that there are "few candidates in history" as qualified as Clinton. "There are few candidates in history who are as qualified or ready for the job of president as Hillary Clinton. I'm excited about her candidacy and her vision for our country," Booker said.

But after Clinton announced her run, he emailed supporters to say, "Having served with her in the Senate, I know she has always been a strong advocate for the middle class and I'm confident she will work tirelessly to ensure that Pennsylvania families have the chance to get ahead and stay ahead."

Not all senators, however, are ready to endorse Clinton this early. Delaware Sen. Tom Carper has side-stepped questions about Hillary Clinton 2016, largely because of uncertainty around whether Vice President Joe Biden -- a Delaware native -- would run. Pennsylvania Sen. Bob Casey told CNN last year that it was too early to endorse.
Here is the list of not yet and nos to Clinton 2016:
Sen. Sherrod Brown of Ohio - In a June interview, Brown said he wasn't "on board with anybody" after being asked about Clinton 2016.
Sen. Thomas Carper of Delaware - The senator told The Hill in 2014 that "It's entirely, entirely too early to be talking about anybody running for president."
Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont - The independent senator is Clinton's strongest primary challenger.
Some senators have been unclear about their support of Clinton in 2016. The best example is Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.
Reid sent a fundraising email through Ready for Hillary in 2014 and regularly speaks highly of the Clintons. But he has not directly said that he is support her possible run.
Here is the list of senators whose support is unclear:
Sen. Michael Bennet of Colorado - The Colorado Democrat sent an email through Ready for Hillary in 2014, but to date, has not made it clear that he would back her run in 2016.
Sen. Joe Donnelly of Indiana
Sen. Angus King of Maine - The Maine senator has not said outright that he isn't backing Clinton, but in a post-election interview with MSNBC, the independent senator who caucuses with Democrats said, "I think that is going to be a difficulty for someone like Hillary Clinton, who has tremendous experience and background, but she's going to have a hard time saying, 'Oh, I'm a new person.'"
Sen. Ed Markey of Massachusetts
Sen. Robert Menendez of New Jersey
Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon
Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut
Sen. Gary Peters of Michigan - Clinton endorsed Peters in 2014 and although Peters hinted at Clinton's future, he didn't outright endorse her. "Whatever she does, she is going to be really great at it in the future," he said at the event with Clinton.
Sen. Jack Reed of Rhode Island
Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada
Sen. Jon Tester of Montana - After losing the chamber in 2014, the Montana Democrat was named chairman of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee through 2016.
