Pennsylvania Auditor General Jack Wagner To Endorse Barack Obama At 1: 00 PM Today

[malik flavors]

Thomas Fitzgerald reports:

The last statewide elected Democratic official to endorse in the presidential race, Auditor General Jack Wagner, will throw his lot in with Sen. Barack Obama this afternoon in Washington, Pa. Wagner, a former state senator, is a popular "Casey Democrat" pol from western Pennsylvania, which demographically is regarded as hospitable terrain for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Wagner will make his announcement at 1 p.m. at the Rossin Campus Center of Washington & Jefferson College.

Gov. Rendell and Lt. Governor Catherine Baker Knoll back Clinton. U.S. Sen. Bob Casey Jr. is with Obama.

4. Interesting how old Gov. Rendell kind of inched his way toward

the middle of the fence yesterday. Guess he wants to make sure he can hop over, just in case.
