According to First Read as of 2:42 p.m. four more super delegates went to Obama. These include the 2 Mikey posted.
That obviously changes the numbers on the post...but I don't want to go through the math again for 4 delegates.
Also, different blogs/sites are reporting different numbers of Edwards' Delegates hopping over to Obama.
So, more change. Woo Obama.
CNN says that Edwards had 11 pledged delegates. Last night Chuck Todd (CHUCK TODD) said that they were under know obligation to vote for Obama, but since they are Edwards supporters that they would most likely follow his lead.
Presumably reporters called the Delegates and the delegates said whether or not they were voting for Obama now.
I just haven't found any sites which say "Delegate X was called at Y and said they were voting for Obama". So right now, as far as I can tell, it's just people saying shit.
someone did. link in the edit.
