AUGUSTA – Republican presidential candidate John McCain’s schedule will not allow another swing into Maine before Election Day, his campaign said after earlier reports that the GOP presidential nominee would visit.
Maine GOP Chairman Mark Ellis had announced the visit earlier Thursday, but a statement issued by the McCain New England campaign Thursday night said that while Maine “is key to the McCain campaign’s strategy,” his schedule “reflects the demands of an aggressive campaign.”
“I think its physically impossible for campaigns to be everywhere they need to be or want to be in the final hours of the race,” Jen Webber, spokesperson for the Maine Republican Party, said Thursday night. “Campaign schedules in the last 36 hours are fluid.”
