U.S. Rep Tim Holden (D-St. Clair) became the final uncommitted superdelegate in Pennsylvania to support Barack Obama, but he still refuses to acknowledge with Democratic candidate he supported, reports The Patriot-News.
Holden instead criticized what he called a "flawed and foolish process."
"This process sucks, but we have a nominee," Holden told The Patriot-News.
He said later that the Republicans' winner-take-all process is superior to the Democrats' proportional system.
Holden has told the candidates personally which of them he supports, but refuses to release that information publicly.
