Warwick Voting

WRNI (November 6, 2006)

One day before the Rhode Island elections, candidates are focusing heavily on high voter turn out areas such as Cranston, East Providence, and Warwick.

Traditionally, Warwick has politically belonged to the Chafee family. Before succeeding his father in U.S. Senate, Lincoln Chafee served seven years as mayor there, after serving on the city council.

But even in his home city, Chafee is locked in a tight re-election battle with democrat Sheldon Whitehouse, as Nancy Cook reports.
