In all the Congresssional races this year in New Hampshire, comfortably incumbent Republicans face Democratic challengers.

Across the Connecticut River, however, voters face a mirror image.

Republicans are the challengers.

And one of Vermont Representative Bernie Sanders' opponents is making some serious charges.

The Vermont Standard's Kevin Forrest reports:

From community organizations to rock stars, various groups are involved in major campaigns this year to get people registered to vote on November 2nd.

And recent reports from around the country seem to suggest that the wide ranging efforts are paying off.

In states where the presidential race is hotly contested like Pennsylvania and Ohio, election officials are saying they are inundated with hundreds of thousands of new registrations.

And even in smaller battleground states like New Hampshire, there's no shortage of groups on the hunt for new voters.

New Hampshire Public Radio's Rebecca Kaufman has the story.

On Tuesday, Vice President Dick Cheney and Senator John Edwards square off for the one and only Vice Presidential debate. Many don't take this contest of words and issues as serious as the Presidential debates, yet in such a tight election, this debate for the second highest office could tip the scales for either President Bush or Senator John Kerry. We'll recap last night's debate and see who came out on top. Laura's guests are Dante Scala, Associate Professor of Politics at Saint Anselm College and author of "Stormy Weather: The New Hampshire Primary and Presidential Politics" and Tim Walch, Director of the Herbert Hoover Presidential Library and Museum, in West Branch, Iowa and editor of At the President's Side: The Vice President in the 20th Century.
