The other celebrity, besides Barack Obama, is to appear at the Verizon Center in Noblesville Indiana today, that would be Sarah Palin. This is Palin's first appearance in a typically red state that is struggling with its political identity. Palin will host 25,000 people today in the hopes to persuade voters to not vote for a Democratic candidate like they did the last time, in 1964. It has been a while since Indiana has played an integral role in the election process and now, since the economy and Wall Street have abandoned ship, Indianans may be looking across the aisle for answers.
This could also help Republicans who are running in the race for governorship of Indiana. Republican Gov. Mitch Daniels who has a scheduling conflict will not be present which is odd and unfortunate for the Republican party.
In other news, voter turnout for early voting has been high. More than 60,000 votes have been cast indicating that the November 4th voting might be huge. There is no indication of a clear winner as of yet as both candidates are neck and neck in most polls that have been taken.
