"I am thrilled that Senator Obama will be our Democratic nominee for president," said Donna Edwards, the Democratic nominee in the June 17th special election in Maryland's 4th Congressional District. "His vision and energy are inspiring to us all. I am dedicated to doing all that I can to help send him to the White House, and I look forward to working with him in Congress to end the war in Iraq, move us toward energy independence with real solutions to stem global warming, and create a health care system that works for all. It is time that we again focus on improving the lives of working families across this country and here in the 4th Congressional District. I am confident that as President, Senator Obama will do just that.
"I commend Senator Clinton on a hard-fought campaign. She is a tremendously talented and courageous leader and has exponentially furthered the cause for women's equality through her efforts. It is now time to look to the future and to work together to ensure that on November 4th, Senator Barack Obama is elected to the presidency of the United States."
