County superdelegate sticking by Clinton

The only superdelegate to the Democratic National Convention from Centre County says she’s sticking behind Hillary Clinton despite the results of Tuesday’s primary elections in North Carolina and Indiana.

“Well, it certainly was a bump in the road,” Centre Hall Democrat Ruth Rudy said on Wednesday. “But it hasn’t changed my mind as far as a superdelegate.”

Rudy, a former state representative from the 171st District, committed to Clinton “as soon as she announced,” and said she will support her until there is a nominee.

“I’m waiting to see the process play out,” Rudy said. “There are only three more weeks. I think all the voters should have their say. There are six contests yet. I’m not telling the other voters what to do.”
