Six of Eight Edwards SC delegates go to Obama
Six of Edwards' eight S.C. delegates back Obama
The head of John Edwards South Carolina presidential campaign told CNN that at least six of the eight delegates Edwards won in S.C. are ready to vote for U.S. Sen. Barack Obama at the Democratic presidential convention.

Columbia attorney John Moylan appeared on the cable news channel this morning.

Edwards endorsed the campaign of his former rival last night.

Edwards' delegates are free to vote for whichever candidate they choose, but delegate Robert Groce said he would choose Obama.

"I was elected to represent John Edwards. I will honor his request," said Groce, 40 and a Summerville resident. "I'm very comfortable that either one (Obama or U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton) could assume the office and do a good job. The party has really benefitted from having so many good candidates."

Edwards' S.C. delegates plan to release a statement later today.

I'm not sure if these are part of the four that MSNBC originally mentioned

1. Are those delegates representing caucus voters, non-whites, or college educated people?
We have to make sure they count.
