The North Carolina senator will address a 3:30 p.m. rally at the Carpenters Union Hall, 700 Olive St., his campaign announced Wednesday. Edwards will attend a fund-raising reception immediately after the rally.

Kerry and Edward's tight finish guarantees the race will still be on for the March 2 Super Tuesday showdown in Minnesota and nine other states. The Wisconsin results allayed Minnesota Democrats' fear that the race would be over before they cast votes at the precinct caucuses.
Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio, who finished a distant fourth in the Wisconsin race, also visits Minnesota on Saturday. He is scheduled to speak at 9:45 p.m. at a Blue-Green Alliance meeting at the United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 789 hall in South St. Paul, address rallies at Carleton College in Northfield at 1 p.m. and the University of Minnesota at 3 p.m. and deliver the keynote address at a National Lawyers Guild banquet at 6 p.m. ...(Full Story)
