U.S. Rep. Garret Graves is endorsing Republican candidate Stephen Waguespack in the Louisiana governor's race.
The GOP congressman represents the 6th District, in and around Baton Rouge.
A video posted to social media on Wednesday shows the two men having breakfast together.
Graves's move runs counter to the state party establishment, which is supporting Attorney General Jeff Landry's candidacy.
Waguespack is the former CEO of the Louisiana Association of Business and Industry, and one of four GOP candidates in the race.
