OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Oklahoma Democrats have chosen the delegates who will attend this year's national party convention in Denver.

More than 450 credentialed Democrats gathered yesterday to choose which 38 people would represent the state at the Democratic National Convention in August.

New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton will receive 24 delegates from Oklahoma after winning the state's primary election earlier this month with 55 percent of the vote.

Among the Clinton supporters selected were state lawmakers Scott BigHorse, Al McAffrey and Connie Johnson.

Former Congressman Brad Carson and state Insurance Commissioner Kim Holland were among the 14 delegates chosen for Illinois Senator Barack Obama.

Oklahoma also learned the identity of its ninth superdelegate. Oklahoma City lawyer Reggie Whitten joined Governor Brad Henry among the delegates who aren't pledged to a single candidate.

what are you people thinking!???? Senator Clinton got a larger percentage of the peoples vote. Obama doesnt even salute our flag! I could not sit in a church for 20 years and not believe what that preacher was saying. I feel that those of you endorsing Obama are having the wool pulled over your eyes. I am another democrat who wll be voting for McCain if clinton is not on the ticket. I also voted for gov. Henry, but not again!

i can not believe the super delegates of Oklahoma endorsing obama. this make me mad . the voters of Oklahoma voted for Hillary in the primary and did she not win. this is slap in the face to the voters of the state of Oklahoma. no wonder we are a republican state ! if obama wins the nomination i will go for McCain as well as many other Democrats. i will not support Governor brad henry of Oklahoma for any positions. i hope he reconsiders as well as the other delegates.

We have a lot of American heros, but you are an American Zero.

Like Oklahoma will go for Hillarious Clinton or Barak HUSSEIN Obama? Terrorists dont have to fight now, voters will vote one into office for them. Vote for a real American Hero, John McCain. It's your patriotic duty, voters!
