Obama picks up another superdelegate; others to come

Despite last night’s loss in Pennsylvania’s primary, Barack Obama still has a strong lead in pledged delegates — and this morning he picks up another superdelegate, Oklahoma Gov. Brad Henry. “I believe Senator Obama is uniquely positioned to unite our nation and move beyond the divisiveness and partisan skirmishes that too often characterize politics as usual in Washington,” he said in a statement.

Before Henry’s announcement, Obama lead Clinton in pledged delegates with 1,482 (Clinton has 1,326), but trails in superdelegates (Clinton 262, Obama 237). His overall delegate lead is 131.

According to the LA Times, there’s more to come: the Obama campaign says it’ll be announcing more superdelegates who are committing to him very soon.
