John Kerry embarked on a final big push for votes in the South-west
yesterday, courting a region that once skewed resolutely conservative
but which now represents the Democratic candidate's best hope of
making inroads in an otherwise solid block of Bush support stretching
from coast to coast.
The Massachusetts senator was due to address a crowd at the University
of Nevada in Reno last night - his sixth trip of the campaign to a
state representing just five electoral votes - before hopping over to
Pueblo, Colorado, for a morning rally with the local Democratic senate
candidate, Ken Salazar, and thence to Las Cruces, New Mexico for a big
get-out-the-vote push among the area's heavily Latino population.
