Gore will arrive in Nashville around 8:30 a.m. today, ending an exhausting
30-hour tour of battleground states. He began at 5:30 yesterday morning in Waterloo, Iowa before leaving for Missouri, Michigan and Florida.
Between Gore, vice presidential candidate Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman (D-Conn.) and their wives, the Democratic ticket will have visited 11 cities in 15 states in the final day of the campaign--in addition to appearing via satellite in a score of others.
Once in Nashville, Gore and his wife Tipper will vote in their hometown of Carthage at the Fork Rivers Elementary School.
Lieberman will begin today with two events in Florida--a state where the polls have vacillated between Gore and Republican nominee George W. Bush and where both candidates have poured in time and money in the last week.
Long considered a sure Bush win--mainly because George W.'s brother Jeb is the state's governor--Gore has managed to make inroads in the state's large senior citizen population by attacking Bush's Social Security plan. Recent polls have shown the race within two or three percentage points.
"George W. Bush has to carry Florida if he's going to win," Shrum predicted.
