Maryland Chair, Vice Chair Are Two Newest Superdelegates for Obama

Hillary Clinton's campaign received an unexpected boost over the weekend when the Maryland State Party (which favors Clinton) split its two add-on delegates between Senators Obama and Clinton, even though Obama won the state by a hefty margin.

Today, the Chair and Vice Chair of Maryland's Democratic Party announced jointly their support for Senator Obama. Chairman Michael Cryor and Vice-Chairman Lauren Dugas Glover made their support known today in an event with recently appointed Obama-supporting add-on delegate Parris Glendening, former Governor of Maryland.

There is talk of more undeclared superdelegates announcing today from Maryland, which had the second largest number of undeclared superdelegates prior to today.
