Mexico’s ‘King of Ranchera’ records ballad backing Clinton

MEXICO CITY — Legendary Mexican singer Vicente Fernandez is lending his voice to support Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and potentially drum up Latino voters.

In a video released Wednesday and paid for by the Washington-based Latino Victory Project, the man known as the “King of Ranchera” music sings about working “hand-in-hand” for a Clinton victory.

The group said Fernandez volunteered to appear in the video, which was posted on YouTube and on the singer’s Facebook page .

Fernandez croons that under a Clinton presidency “we will always have a bridge.” He is shown leaning on a ranch fence amid clips of galloping horses, smiling children and a campaigning Clinton.
