WASHINGTON — With the Democratic race for president decided, three more Washington state superdelegates are lining up behind presumptive nominee Barack Obama.

Former House Speaker Tom Foley and Reps. Jay Inslee and Norm Dicks say they will support the Illinois senator. Foley had been the last undecided superdelegate in Washington state, while Inslee and Dicks had previously endorsed New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Dicks said he spoke to Clinton Wednesday night and encouraged her to unify the party by publicly backing Obama. Clinton told supporters in an e-mail today that she will speak on Saturday about how to rally the party behind Obama. "I see no reason not to join in that effort and express my support for Obama," Dicks said in an interview. "I want to unify the party and that's what Sen. Clinton wants as well."
