Many endorsements expected today for Obama

Although some potential supporters may back out at the last second, Sen. Barack Obama should get many key endorsements today.

The Service Employees International Union (SEIU) already announced their support for Obama this morning.

According to the New York Times, both Nevada's Culinary Workers Union and the national labor coalition to which the latter belongs, known as Unite Here, will endorse the Illinois senator simultaneously at 11 am EST.

Here in California, state senators Alan Lowenthal of Los Angeles and Dean Florez of the Central Valley endorsed Obama yesterday. Today it is expected that among others, Ted Lieu and Nicole Parra from the state assembly and State Sen. Elaine Alquist will announce their support.
