Election might turn on which side does better at getting out the vote
/With the televised debates behind them, President
Bush and Sen. John Kerry have little opportunity to shape further the
presidential race except by waging an intense effort in the home
stretch aimed at getting out the vote. Voting advocates press on in an
aggressive campaign to register voters for the presidential election.
Voters have a pretty good idea now what the candidates are all about.
There isn't much room for either one to "define" his opponent or
himself. At this point, getting out the vote is equally -- if not more --
important than winning over the dwindling number of undecided voters,
strategists in both parties agree. With just two weeks to go to the
election, polls showed Bush and Kerry in a dead heat -- back where they
were at the beginning of the summer before the party conventions. [more
