Guardian.co.uk: US elections - Long primary season ends with Obama set to clinch nomination

World news Feed Article | World news

History within his reach, Barack Obama was primed to claim the
Democratic presidential nomination Tuesday or soon after as voters in
Montana and South Dakota bring his months-long contest with dogged
rival Hillary Rodham Clinton to a close. Clinton appeared ready to bow
to the inevitable and spare the party an even more protracted fight.
Clinton campaign chairman Terry McAuliffe said Tuesday that
once Obama gets the majority of convention delegates, ``I think Hillary
Clinton will congratulate him and call him the nominee.''
