It was a perplexing endorsement, since the two senators are running on significantly divergent platforms.

The New York Times editorial board endorsed Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobuchar in the race for the Democratic presidential primary after interviewing the top nine contenders on issues that are most important to voters in this heated election year.

The boost for the pair of senators comes two weeks before the Feb. 3 caucuses in Iowa, the first state to vote on who they want to elect as president in November. In 2016, Hillary Clinton won the Iowa caucuses as the Democratic presidential nominee while Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas topped the ticket for the Republican Party. Both ended up losing to Donald Trump.

“She famously has ‘a plan for that’ and had a answer for nearly every question,” the board said when it published its transcript of the senator’s interview. “The senator from Minnesota is the very definition of Midwestern charisma, grit and sticktoitiveness,” the board wrote. “Her lengthy tenure in the Senate and bipartisan credentials would make her a deal maker and uniter for the wings of the party — and perhaps the nation.”
