Presidential candidate John Kerry will
campaign in Arkansas on Wednesday and Thursday. The state
Democratic Party director Ron Oliver announced this morning that
Kerry will arrive late Wednesday afternoon at Little Rock`s airport
for a rally with retired Army General Wesley Clark.
Kerry will head to the Peabody Hotel for a fund-raiser reception
where he will make brief remarks. On Thursday, Kerry plans to make
a speech on health care before heading back to the airport.
Tickets for the airport rally are free and can be picked up at
state Democratic Party headquarters.
Kerry`s visit is preceded by a stop by President Bush in Fort
Smith and Van Buren tomorrow.
Arkansas is considered a must-win state for Bush in this year`s
presidential election. Bush has already visited Arkansas twice this
year. Wednesday`s visit will be Kerry`s first campaign visit to the
state.
