Philly's Liberty City Democrats Back Clinton

Philadelphia's Liberty City Democratic Club, one of three Pennsylvania chapters of the National Stonewall Democrats, has endorsed Hillary Clinton for president. Stonewall's Steel City Democratic Club in Pittsburgh had previously endorsed Clinton while the Capital Region Club in Harrisburg has not voted on the matter. Though Clinton clinched the endorsement with more than two thirds of the vote, the Sunday night meeting was not without contention. Both cochairs of Liberty City are Obama supporters, and according to Clinton supporter Jonathan Oriole, who attended the meeting, discussion ensued about postponing the vote or potentially not endorsing a candidate at all.
