Pennsylvania Congressman Chris Carney is backing Hillary Rodham Clinton in her continuing presidential bid, her campaign announced today.

Carney represents the Keystone State’s 10th district. The superdelegate said in a statement: “I have watched this primary process very closely--and as I said I would do, I have weighed the temperament and leadership displayed by Senators Clinton and Obama during the course of this campaign. We are extremely fortunate to have two very strong candidates vying to lead our nation. Pennsylvania 's 10th District overwhelmingly chose Senator Clinton in the Pennsylvania primary and I will respect their decision. On Wednesday, I had the opportunity to meet with Senator Clinton, and let her know Thursday that I am supporting her.”
