Super-Del Tom Allen Announces Support For Obama; Calls On Race To End
Super-delegate and Congressman Tom Allen of Maine just announced in a release that he's backing Barack Obama.
"Most of the primary voters across the nation have now spoken," Allen said today, according to a release sent out by his campaign to unseat Maine GOP Senator Susan Collins.
"It is time to bring a graceful end to the primary campaign," said Allen, whose campaign to unseat Collins has netroots and establishment support, though he's trailing in polls. "We now need to unify the Democratic Party and focus on electing Senator Obama and a working majority in the United States Senate."
