Obama Release on Virginia Superdelegate

VIRGINIA SUPERDELEGATE, DNC MEMBER Jerome Wiley Segovia ENDORSES BARACK OBAMA

Chicago, IL – Today, Virginia superdelegate Democratic National Committee Member Jerome Wiley Segovia endorsed Barack Obama. Obama is now 45 delegates from the nomination.

Segovia said, “While sharing the valuable international experience of spending a portion of my formative years overseas in a similar fashion as Senator Obama, I am excited to add my support to a campaign that has clearly demonstrated a commitment to an inclusive national field campaign, has shattered all previous campaign fundraising records, and is supportive of alternative sources of energy to begin to solve our energy crisis. I believe that with Senator Obama's leadership the DNC and all Democratic party groups and programs can continue building upon the amazing progress already begun by Governor Dean and his team.”
