Edwards Campaign Tour

A C-SPAN crew followed Democratic presidential candidate Senator Edwards and his staff for a behind-the-scenes look at his campaign tour in Georgia and Maryland. First an Edwards television campaign commercial was shown. Then Jason McLemore, press advance person, and others were shown setting up a hall on February 19 for a speech to supporters at Clark Atlanta University, followed later by shots of Senator Edwards greeting students in the audience and then delivering a speech. Scenes were shown on the staff airplane, including interviews with staff members and reporters. Outdoors in Savannah’s Johnson Square on February 20 some supporters were interviewed and Senator Edwards delivered a speech to the rally. At Prince George’s Community College in Largo, Maryland, Senator Edwards gave a speech to a rally and mingled with supporters.

Senator Edwards visited five Super Tuesday states in three days including New York, Georgia, Maryland, Minnesota and Ohio. close
