It isexpected that when credible organizations or people who are opinion leaders endorse any candidate it would help to shape the opinion of those who may be undecided. There are people who have followers and admirers that take their opinion very seriously. So, when those people go out of their way to endorse a candidate, their followers and even those they may not know admire their opinions, may likely say, because such a person has endorsed the candidate, they would follow that candidate.
