Reclaiming the American Dream
WASHINGTON, May 7 PRNewswire — The following is a statement from Change to Win executive director Greg Tarpinian on the results of the Indiana and North Carolina Democratic primary elections.
"Sen. Barack Obama's surprisingly large victory in North Carolina and strong showing in Indiana have brought the Democratic Party one step closer to selecting Sen. Obama as our nominee for president. With only six contests remaining, it has become clear that Sen. Obama is the choice of more voters, in more states, and continues to hold a commanding lead among pledged delegates.
"The aggressive education and mobilization efforts of the Change to Win unions made a critical difference in narrowing the margin of Clinton victory in the Hoosier State and produced a solid block of delegates in Indiana and North Carolina. Change to Win will continue to support Sen. Obama in the remaining primary elections to help make him the next president of the United States of America."
