Fulbright To Campaign For Casey In Armana

CNS Secretary of State facing tough re-election bid

WESTERNMYER, ARA--Armana Secretary of State Doug Casey (CNS) is hoping to ride the coattails of popular CNS senator and gubernatorial candidate Dale Fulbright.

Fulbright is expected to win over NAT opponent Lt. Gov. Ray Cognelli in next week's election. But Secretary Casey, who is facing a tough challenge from NAT candidate Mark Duggan, is not so secure in his bid for his first full term.

Duggan entered the race late at the urging of party officials. But his last-minute candidacy has put Casey on the defensive. Mr. Casey is a moderate conservative but he is struggling to gain support in this heavily-nationalist state.

Today, Casey's campaign announced the secretary will be appearing with Senator Fulbright at two campaign events over the next week. The first will come Thursday, where the senator will make a joint appearance with Casey at a campaign event in Westernmyer. The second appearance will happen next Monday in Burrowsdale, north of Maine City. The two will both spend election night together as well at the CNS party headquarters in Port Victoria.
