2008 Presidential Race

SUPERDELEGATES

The Democratic Party must be democratic. The superdelegates should let the voters decide between Clinton and Obama; write your Senator, Congressman, and anyone else involved in this process to tell them to “PLEASE support the people’s choice”, not political maneuvering or bias!

Why has Obama received so many less superdelegates than Clinton? Shouldn’t the voters decide this? Yet the Primary election results, for 2 states in particular, are:

NY State primaries:
Vote: Clinton – 57%, Obama – 40%
Superdelegates: Clinton – 41, Obama – 1

California primaries:
Vote: Clinton – 52%, Obama – 42%
Superdelegates: Clinton – 27, Obama – 13
