Former Republican Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge endorsed Democratic nominee Joe Biden on Sunday, claiming he will cast his first vote for a Democrat because President Donald Trump lacks “the empathy, integrity, intellect, and maturity to lead.”

“I will cast my vote for Joe Biden on Nov. 3,” Ridge wrote in an op-ed for The Philadelphia Inquirer. “It will be my first vote for a Democratic candidate for president of the United States. But it is not the first time I have said ‘no’ to Donald Trump. I urge my fellow Pennsylvanians to join me.”
