The Tea Party Express is throwing their support behind Indiana Treasurer Richard Murdock’s attempt to challenge sitting Sen. Dick Lugar (R-Ind.) in the state’s Republican primary
Lugar, commonly described as a moderate Republican, holds a “history of votes for wasteful spending, bailouts, and bigger government, combined with an attitude of disdain for the tea party movement” according to a statement released by the group this morning.
The organization will formally announce the endorsement in Indiana Thursday.
