Yancey offers ‘no comment’ on whether he is still backing Wilkerson

Boston City Councilor Charles Yancey, who endorsed state Sen. Dianne Wilkerson in both her primary this year and in her write-in general election campaign, declined to state whether he was still supporting her on Thursday in light of the recent allegations that she accepted $23,500 in bribes.

Asked by PolitickerMA.com if he was still supporting Wilkerson, the Dorchester Democrat's office said he has "no comment."

Yancey's office said the councilor is waiting to see how the legal proceedings play out.
