Texas Democratic Party chairman endorses Obama

Texas Democratic Party Chairman Boyd Richie, a superdelegate, announced Thursday that he’s endorsing Barack Obama for president. Mr. Richie’s wife, Democratic National Committee member Betty Richie, is also expected to endorse the Illinois senator, state Democratic sources said.

Throughout the primary season, the couple had remained neutral in the race. The addition of the two superdelegates to the Obama camp padded his lead of 200 or so delegates over Hillary Rodham Clinton. He needs less than 45 delegates to reach the 2,026 needed for nomination.
