COLUMBUS, OHIO - John Kerry appealed to African-American voters on Sunday, as he pushed ahead with his campaign to unseat George W. Bush.


Senator John Kerry

Kerry promised the voters, many of whom feel the Republicans are trying to keep them off the voter lists, "We're not going to let this be just a repeat of 2000. We're not going to see a million African-Americans deprived of their votes in America," he said.

With just 16 days to go until the vote, the race couldn't be tighter.

Polls suggest a dead heat. Even Republican organizers concede the Democratic senator has benefited from his performance in the three presidential debates.

And a Washington Post poll shows Kerry with a significant lead in important states that could decide the outcome of the election. The poll found Kerry held a 53 per cent to 43 per cent lead among likely voters in 13 such states.

2. terrific news... I have always thought Kerry has to be ahead...

The President has a horrible record and we face a terrible future if he gets back in... I feel that they want Bush to track in phony polls so it will be easier to steal the election..... they are cheats and liars
