COLUMBIA, S.C. - Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama has moved a campaign rally with talk show host Oprah Winfrey to a football stadium that can hold more than 80,000 people, officials said Wednesday.
Obama’s campaign has said it had already filled a planned Dec. 9 event with Winfrey at the Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester, N.H., which holds about 12,000 people.
The South Carolina event had been scheduled for an 18,000-seat coliseum near the University of South Carolina campus, but the campaign ran out of the free tickets just two days after it began distributing them. Tickets will no longer be needed.
