Clinton comeback wins key votes…
March 5, 2008
Hillary Clinton has revived her campaign for the US presidency with projected primary election wins in three states.
US media say she has taken the Democratic primary polls in Democratic Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island. The results of caucus meetings in Texas are not yet known.
Rival Democrat Barack Obama took the primary in the state of Vermont.
Meanwhile, John McCain has won the Republican nomination with projected wins in all the four states.
His closest rival, Mike Huckabee, has dropped out of the race and pledged to support Mr McCain’s candidacy.
Mr McCain’s victories take him to 1,224 delegates, well over the threshold of 1,191 needed to claim the nomination at the party’s national convention in September.
Both Democratic candidates called Mr McCain to congratulate him on clinching the Republican candidacy.
‘Coming back’
Speaking to jubilant crowds in Columbus, Ohio, Mrs Clinton said she was determined to stay in the race and looked forward to continuing the debate with Mr Obama “in the weeks ahead”.
“For everyone here in Ohio and across America who has ever been counted out but refused to be knocked out, for everyone who has stumbled but stood right back up, and for everyone who works hard and never gives up, this one is for you,” she said.
Mrs Clinton also pointed to Ohio’s status as a state which had picked the winning presidential nominee in every contest in recent history.
“You know what they say - as Ohio goes, so goes the nation. Well, this nation’s coming back and so is this campaign,” she said.
