I guess I left town before this happened, but Obama has already talked to the members of the quickly expanding group.

Sorry folks, I misread something in a story earlier after a commenter gave me a heads up, but the AP makes a point that McGovern IS NOT a superdelegate, so Obama only added 3 superdelegates today and Hillary didn’t lose one.

From Politico:

A Texas DNC member, Jaime A.

Gonzalez Jr., is coming out for Clinton, a campaign source says.

The move by Gonzalez, a trial lawyer, gives her a net gain on the day.

ALSO: He’s on Rules & Bylaws, which could be handy in a fight over Florida and Michigan.

The post-PA pickup tally is now 15 to 11, and that makes 5 to 5 for today.

From TPM:

Hillary just picked up four new super-dels — so-called “add ons” that were selected by the New York state party today.

The four, according to her campaign, are: Andrew Cuomo, Thomas DiNapoli, C.

Virginia Field and Carmen Arroyo.

Separately, the Obama camp announced a new super-del today: Texas DNC Member John Patrick.

This time from Connecticut:

John Olsen, president of the Connecticut AFL-CIO and a super-delegate, is expected to announce Thursday his support for Hillary Rodham Clinton.

His announcement follows a commitment to Clinton by Bill George, the president of the Pennsylvania AFL-CIO, who also is a super-delegate.

And that means another superdelegate for Obama.

From NY Times:

Sen.

Barack Obama officially pulled ahead today in the scramble for endorsements from colleagues in the U.S. Senate, thanks to Sen.

Jeff Bingaman of New Mexico.
