Hi there,

Can you donate $10 per month to support Democracy Now!’s independent journalism all year long? Since our very first broadcast in 1996, we’ve refused to take government or corporate funding, because nothing is more important to us than our editorial independence—especially in this unprecedented election year. When Democracy Now! covers war and peace or the climate crisis, we’re not brought to you by the weapons manufacturers or the oil, gas, coal or nuclear companies. Our journalism is powered by YOU. But that means we can’t do our work without your support. Right now, a generous donor will DOUBLE your gift, which means your $10 donation this month will be worth $20 to Democracy Now! Please do your part right now. We’re all in this together. Thank you so much.
-Amy Goodman

Clinton, Obama Set Sights on Indiana

HeadlineApr 24, 2008

On the campaign trail, Democratic candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have turned their focus to Indiana, following Clinton’s win in the Pennsylvania primary. The Clinton campaign says it raised $10 million in online donations following her victory. On Wednesday, Clinton insisted her string of big-state primary wins prove she is more electable.

Sen. Hillary Clinton: “Absolutely. You know, more people have now voted for me than have voted for my opponent. In fact, I now have more votes than anybody has ever had in a primary contest for a nomination. And it’s also clear that we’ve got nine more important contests to go.”

Clinton was including her victory in both the Michigan and Florida primaries as part of her calculation. But neither primary will count because of a breach of Democratic Party rules. None of the candidates campaigned in Florida, while Senator Barack Obama and John Edwards stayed off the ballot in Michigan.
