Elizabeth Warren Releases Results of DNA Ancestry Test

BOSTON — Senator Elizabeth Warren is releasing DNA test results that show strong evidence she has a Native American ancestor.

The Massachusetts Democrat who might run for president next year has said she was told by family members that she has Native American roots.

President Trump and other Republicans have mocked Warren for that claim.

She provided test results to the Boston Globe yesterday in an effort to answer blunt questions about her ancestry.

The expert who analyzed Warren's DNA says the vast majority of the senator's ancestry is European but there was a Native American ancestor six to ten generations back.
