21 of Pennsylvania’s 26 superdelegates have decided between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. There are still five superdelegates who have not declared their preference.
If someone gives out political courage awards later this year someone like Bob Casey, who chose Obama when almost every other elected official in the state was with Clinton, may be considered for the award.
Those who will not be in contention include Congressmen Tim Holden, Jason Altmire, Bob Brady, Mike Doyle and Chris Carney, who still cannot decide between Obama and Clinton.
