The three included Democratic U.S. Representative Gregory Meeks of New York City, where Bloomberg was mayor for 12 years. Meeks endorsement, first reported by Reuters, signals that Bloomberg is building support among some top African-American politicians despite a 2015 audio recording that surfaced on Tuesday.
