Lieberman plans visit to Las Vegas

Tuesday, Nov. 18, 2003 | 10:38 a.m.

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut will be in Las Vegas Wednesday to attend a $1,000-a-plate luncheon.

The lunch reception, hosted by former Sen. Richard Bryan, former Mayor Jan Laverty Jones and Hal and Dee Ober, will be at noon at a location disclosed only to those who purchase guest tickets ranging from $1,000 to a maximum contribution of $2,000.

Lieberman's campaign officials in Washington, D.C., said the luncheon is closed to the news media, and thus the location was not announced.

Lieberman, however, will meet with Las Vegas reporters for a 15-minute news conference at 10:45 a.m. at McCarran International Airport shortly after his arrival.

The visit is part of a zig-zagging campaign swing that includes visits to Flagstaff, Ariz., and Skokie, Ill., today; Las Vegas and Menlo Park, Calif., Wednesday; and San Francisco, Bloomington, Minn., and Encino, Calif., Thursday.
