Superdelegate & NY DNC Member, Irene Stein Endorses Clinton
Sen. Hillary Clinton got one more superdelegate added to the aggregate of her superdelegate count, when the New York DNC member, Irene Stein came forward to endorse her on Monday.

In a statement, Stein wrote “This has been the most difficult political decision I have ever had to make in my entire career….Our County voted by a strong majority for Barack Obama in the Democratic primary. On the other hand, the New York State Democratic Committee, who elected me to my position, seems to be overwhelmingly for Sen. Clinton, as is our state’s delegation to the convention.”

Stein’s endorsement statement contained several reasons to pledge her support to Clinton, including an opinion that Clinton is stronger against presumptive Republican nominee Sen. John McCain, in the general election and noted that she has won key states during the primary and caucus season.
