FISHERS, Ind. (AP) — Democratic Senate candidate Joe Donnelly is spending his final hours on the campaign trail telling voters he would continue the bipartisan tradition of Republican U.S. Sen. Richard Lugar in Washington.
Donnelly met Democratic volunteers in Fishers on Monday morning with former U.S. Sen. Evan Bayh and Democratic congressional candidate Scott Reske (RES'-kee) by his side. Donnelly beamed as he took questions from the media.
New polling has shown him leading tea party-backed state Treasurer Richard Mourdock following fallout over the Republican's remarks that pregnancy resulting from rape is "something God intended."
The Donnelly campaign's final commercial features his family and a dig at Mourdock. Donnelly claims his children have grown out of their belief that they are always right but that Mourdock hasn't.
