Barack Obama Secures Majority of Pledged Delegates

I just received this from the Obama campaign:

Dear Karoli,

The polls are closed in Kentucky and votes are being counted in Oregon,
and it’s clear that tonight we have reached a major milestone on this
journey.

We have won an absolute majority of all the delegates chosen by the people in this Democratic primary process.

From the beginning, this journey wasn’t about me or the other
candidates. It was about a simple choice — will we continue down the
same road with the same leadership that has failed us for so long, or
will we take a different path?

Too many of us have been disappointed by politics and
politicians more times than you can count. We’ve seen promises broken
and good ideas drowned in a sea of influence, point-scoring, and petty
bickering that has consumed Washington.

Yet, in spite of all the doubt and disappointment — or perhaps because of it — people have stood for change.
