Gov. Brian Schweitzer as well as Sens. Max Baucus and Jon Tester have agreed to all endorse the winner of Montana’s primary — almost certain to be Sen. Barack Obama (Ill.) — immediately upon the contest being called. The trio will be joined in the endorsement by state party chairman Dennis McDonald and vice chairman Margaret Campbell.
Via, The Washington Post, five Montana superdelegates will be endorsing the winner (which will be Obama) immediately after the polls close. We can also expect the endorsement of John Sprat of South Carolina, who pre-announced yesterday.
So including these, Barack needs just 16 more Superdelegates.
