CAPITOL HILL (AP) – One of Hillary Rodham Clinton's black congressional supporters says he intends to vote for Barack Obama at the Democratic National Convention, and a second is openly discussing a possible switch.
Georgia Congressman David Scott says he intends to vote for Obama, citing the wishes of his constituents. He represents a district that gave more than 80 percent of its vote to Obama in Georgia's Democratic primary earlier this month.
Fellow Georgia Congressman John Lewis — whose Atlanta-area district voted 3-to-1 for Obama — says he is not ready to abandon his backing for the former first lady. But several associates say the nationally known civil rights figure has become increasingly torn about his early endorsement of Clinton.
Clinton holds a sizable lead among the roughly 800 so-called superdelegates, who are chosen outside the primary and caucus system.
