Obama: Countdown to the Nomination - 121.5 Delegates to Go
Edited on Fri May-16-08 09:31 AM by L0oniX

Yesterday, Obama secured the support of 4 super delegates (Reps. Henry Wexler, Jim McDermott and Howard Berman and Larry Cohen (CWA DNC)), 1 pledged delegate in North Carolina (because of updated vote tallies in the state) and 7 pledged delegates that had previously supported John Edwards. That means that the number for Obama to secure a majority of pledged delegates has gone down from 25 to 17. And the number Obama needs to secure the nomination is 121.5.

3. God, I love DU. I had no idea about Pete Stark. I feel so much smarter
than my friends and family on matters of politics (does that sound "elitist"?) because of people like you guys.

GOBAMA!
