Obama switches on voting rights
Uncategorized| August 4th, 2008US presidential hopeful Barack Obama has called for delegates from Michigan and Florida to have their voting rights restored at the Democratic convention.
They were stripped of those rights when the two states held early primary votes in February, breaking party rules.
Both states were won by Hillary Clinton, who had lobbied fiercely for their representatives to be included.
Mr Obama - who later won enough delegates to secure the nomination - had until now opposed the move.
However in a letter to the party’s credentials committee sent on Sunday, viagra viagra bestellen he asked members to reinstate full voting rights for the delegates from Michigan and Florida.
They were originally stripped of these rights, but were given half-votes in a compromise reached at an acrimonious party meeting in May.
The convention, due to be held in Denver from 25 to 27 August, is expected to confirm Mr Obama as the party’s presidential candidate.
