Photos from Kerry/Edwards NM Visit

lasvegas

The Kerry/Edwards bunch made quite a splash traveling through New Mexico by train over the weekend. From crowds lining the tracks at Raton, to the speeches at the Las Vegas train station, to Albuquerque's Old Town and Mass at San Felipe de Neri and lunch at La Hacienda, to shopping at Western Warehouse and attendance at the Inter-Tribal Indian Ceremonial and Pow Wow in Gallup, the Dem ticket attracted enthusiastic crowds. It was the first time a presidential candidate visited Las Vegas since 1948 when Harry Truman spoke at the train station. The Kerry/Edwards folks used the very same train cars used by Truman during his 1948 whistlestop campaign tour.

Yahoo has photos from the NM visit at
