Presidential Candidates' Final Push in Swing States

Each candidate has been making last minute efforts to get votes in key swing states.With less than 24 hours until the presidential election, President Obama and Governor Mitt Romney have been making appearances in swing states such as Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Ohio.

 
Vice presidential candidate, Paul Ryan, was in Reno, Nevada today to speak at a rally of more than 500 supporters. This stop was Ryan's second one in the last four days.


President Obama's campaign workers were handing out fliers, and making phone calls for the incumbent.


Nevada has six electoral votes and it is one of the eleven swing states. Reno is a city in Nevada that often leans Republican. Las Vegas, the state's largest city, is often solid blue.

The article was originally published, in the Wall Street Journal, on November 5, 2012. The author was Jim Carlton. This article was unbias because it stated simple facts about the candidates' campaign stops.
