New York: Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton's campaign today denied a report that she has decided to concede defeat to rival Barack Obama in the bitter nomination race for the White House.
The AP, quoting campaign officials, earlier reported that Clinton will concede tonight that front-runner Obama has the delegates to secure the nomination, effectively ending her bid to be the United States' first female president.
However, her campaign manager Terry McAuliffe told CNN that they do not expect either candidates to have 2,118 delegates to declare victory and she would be working on super delegates tomorrow to win their support.
The former first lady will stop short of formally suspending or ending her race in her speech in New York City. She will pledge to continue to speak out on issues like health care. But for all intents and purposes, the campaign is over, the AP report said quoting two senior officials.
Analysts said things could change if a large number of super delegates declare their support to Obama at the close of poll in South Dakota and Montana primaries.
