Clinton Press Release: Statement from Harold Ickes Calling on Sen. Obama To Support A New Vote in Michigan

[Clinton Campaign Press Release from March 17, 2008]

Statement from Harold Ickes Calling on Sen. Obama To Support A New Vote in Michigan

“The right to vote is the foundation of our democracy. If Barack Obama’s campaign stands in the way of a new vote, he will be putting his own political interests ahead of the people of Michigan. They deserve to have a voice and a vote in the Democratic Party’s nominating process. A re-vote is the only way Michigan can be assured its delegation will be seated, and vote in Denver. If the Obama campaign thwarts a fair election process for the people of Michigan, it will jeopardize the Democratic nominee’s ability to carry the state in the general election.”
