Dole, Hagan continue campaigning on election eve

RALEIGH -- U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole and Democratic challenger Kay Hagan are hoping one more day of full campaigning will secure victory on Election Day. Dole scheduled seven stops on an airplane flight around the state Monday, beginning and ending in Charlotte. Hagan scheduled morning events in Wilmington, New Bern and Goldsboro. The one-term Republican Dole is trying to avoid getting swept up in a potential Democratic string of Senate victories on Tuesday. Hagan, a state senator from Greensboro, has said Dole is too closely aligned with President Bush and has sided with special interests during her six years on Capitol Hill. Dole accuses Hagan of being wobbly on the most important issues of the day, including Iraq and the banking bailout. (Copyright 2008 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.)
