One Last Day

On the last day of campaigning before the primary, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton — and all of the candidates for state office — are all over the state, making one last pitch to voters. Obama is in Durham, speaking at a semiconductor manufacturing plant. Clinton is in Greenville and High Point.

Here’s a round-up from a busy weekend on the campaign trail:

Bill Clinton stumped in Kernersville yesterday, continuing his role as his wife’s chief ambassador to small-town America.

In both North Carolina and Indiana, Obama and Clinton continued their debate over whether to suspend the federal gas tax during the summer.

The two candidates also are working to cut into each other’s demographic bases. They are also unleashing celebrities on their behalf.

Is North Carolina the less important of the two May 6 primary states? No.

And full coverage of Friday night’s Jefferson-Jackson Dinner.
