. A person to be appointed by Knutson at the Democratic State Convention this spring.

Knutson announced last week that he would support the candidate who wins the majority of the vote in Maine’s caucuses. Two superdelegates, Baldacci and Curtis, have committed to supporting Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton. The rest are uncommitted, Arden Manning, executive director of the Maine Democratic Party, said Sunday.
