Barack Obama Follow

by Amanda Erickson For Sen. Hillary Clinton's die hard fans, it's a very sad day. The New York Daily News is reporting that Clinton has decided against asking for a nomination at the Democratic National Convention in Denver this August. According to the paper, a source told reporters that Clinton won't file a formal request for the nomination, which would require her to also turn in a petition signed by 300 to 600 delegates. Many had said Clinton wanted her supporters to cast their first vote for her, even though the nomination of Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) is assured. The source also speculated that Clinton will formally release her delegates when she speaks at the convention, perhaps to avoid a situation where Obama loses a lot of votes to a candidate who has removed herself from the race.
