THE BATTALION
EL PASO (AP) — Democrats say they deserve a visit
from Vice President A1 Gore during this week’s campaign
. swing through the Southwest to shore up support in this far
West Texas city.
But so far, El Paso is not on the vice president’s agen
da for Thursday’s rallies, which in
clude a campaign stop at nearby Las
Cruces, N.M.
That is where, according to the
Gore campaign, loyal supporters
should head — across the state line,
about 45 miles away.
Congressman Silvestre Reyes of El
Paso, one of Gore’s state campaign
vice chairmen, says he is been unable
to persuade campaign manager Bill
Daley and others that an El Paso event
is needed to reward El Paso’s rock-sol
id loyalty to the Democratic Party.
“Daley is holding fast on that. My
only other alternative is to talk to the
vice president,” Reyes told the El Paso
Times on Tuesday while waiting for a re
turn call from Gore. “At this point,
they’re holding tough. If that is going to be the case, then I
don’t anticipate that we will be cooperating with the Las
Cruces event.” %
El Paso Democrats are getting 10.000 free tickets for the
* Gore rally, scheduled to start at 7 p.m. at the Las Cruces
Sports Complex. But some say making the drive to New
Mexico on a school or work night will be difficult.
“I can understand him passing through El Paso, but it
wouldn’t hurt if he stopped for about 15 minutes or so,”
said Rebecca Velazquez. “1 can understand that he has a
tight schedule, but it would have been nice if he made an
effort to stop.... But I won’t withhold my vote for him just
because he didn’t stop.”
Gore’s campaign workers in Wash
ington, D.C., and Albuquerque, N.M.,
had no immediate plans to add a stop in
El Paso. With its five Electoral College
votes, New Mexico is one of 18 tossup
states that could determine the outcome
of the Nov. 7 presidential election. But
in Texas, Gov. George W. Bush is fa
vored to win.
“All of the Democratic leadership in
El Paso is holding tough. This is not wise
in terms of what they are proposing,”
Reyes said. “This is cold, hard, brutal
politics. We just need a little more re
spect than this. That’s What I want to tell
the vice president. This is not good.” ,
Gore, during the 1992 campaign,
flew into El Paso for a rally in Las
Cruces as a vice-presidential candidate. His motorcade
stopped briefly after leaving the El Paso airport for him
to speak with reporters and to shake hands with a few
supporters.
Voter Laura Winter said the drive to Las Cruces, followed
by a late-night return trip to El Paso and a need to be back
at work the next morning, “just presents a big question.”
Gore urged to stop in El Paso
can under
stand him pass
ing through El
Paso, but it
wouldn't hurt if
he stopped for
about 15 minutes
or so”
