WASHINGTON (AP):

Democrats Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama shifted their battle for the Democratic presidential nomination to Indiana, the mid-western state where the former first lady faces yet another must-win vote in the opening days of May.

Coming out of a solid victory this week in Pennsylvania, Clinton's rewards were immediate; her campaign said yesterday that she raised US$10 million in the 24 hours after winning the primary, with contributions from 80,000 new donors out of 100,000.

Clinton, who was strapped for cash going into Tuesday's contest, started making fund-raising pleas as soon as the race was called.

She told supporters during her nationally televised victory speech to go to her website to send money.
