South Dakota and Montana Primaries May Clinch Nomination for Obama

Democratic Presidential candidate Barack Obama has a strong chance to clinch the party's nomination on Tuesday, according to the Washington Post, with two primaries set to be held in South Dakota and Montana. Obama may potentially receive the required minimum of 2,118 delegates in order to clinch the Democratic nomination.

Obama's opponent, Hillary Rodham Clinton, appears ready to continue her push to attempt to gather support from uncommitted delegates. However, her advisors mentioned the option of Clinton dropping out of the race on Tuesday night, followed by an endorsement of Obama, according the Washington Post.

Though an advisor to Clinton has publicly stated that she will suspend her campaign in the next couple of days, the candidate denied the advisor's statement by explaining her strategy of attempting to appeal to delegates at the upcoming Democratic Convention. Various Democrats are predicting that Congress members will rally around Obama's potential candidacy before the end of this week.
