This list is incomplete. Your missing George McGovern (switched yesterday), The former govenor of New Mexico, and several others. I really bad at names so I have to check and I give you the names later.
George McGovern is not a superdelegate. But yes, Richardson is missing, but he’s the CURRENT governor of New Mexico.
Richardson never endorsed Clinton so he didn’t switch.
Then one is still missing, since the blog post about Payne’s switch indicated he was the ninth switch this campaign season.
DNC Senfronia Thompson was missing from the list.
Thanks
Swisher started with Edwards, moved to Clinton, and left after about two weeks to side with Obama.
This doesn’t seem to have been updated recently. The “latest endorsements” page lists switchers Kevin Rodriguez (VI) on May 10 and Dennis Cardoza (CA) on May 23. Keep up the good work.
Fixed
Thanks Christopher
Well, don’t thank me too soon. According to “latest endorsements” the Clinton campaign confirms that Rodriguez has now switched back.
Rodriguez now doing doing double duty in the post.
