Cheney Going Hunting On Election Day

WASHINGTON -- Vice President ***** Cheney
will be spending Election Day on his first hunting trip
since he accidentally shot a companion last February.
A spokeswoman said after working at the White House
Tuesday morning, Cheney will head to South Dakota
to spend several days at a private hunting lodge
near Pierre. Cheney's press secretary said Cheney spent
Election Day in 2002 at the same lodge.
The vice president will be accompanied by his daughter,
Mary, and his political director, Mel Raines, who will
help him keep track of the election returns.
During a February hunting trip in Texas, Cheney shot
attorney Harry Whittington in the torso, neck and face
while aiming at a covey of quail. The vice president
later called it "one of the worst days" of his life.
The shooting was ruled an accident. Whittington was
hospitalized for six days.
