Pat Boone endorses Todd Akin

Source: KSDK

St. Louis, MO (KSDK) - Mid-century pop singer and actor Pat Boone is voicing his support for Rep. Todd Akin for U.S. Senate.

In a brief statement released Friday morning, Boone says he's "strongly supportive" of Akin and that he'll "represent the true values of Missouri families."

Though not from Missouri, Boone routinely performs in Branson and across the state.

Pat Boone received the Conservative Political Action Conference lifetime achievement award in 2011.
