Republicans are announcing the day before the election, Monday, Nov. 3, both Senator John McCain and Governor Sarah Palin will be in Nevada.  McCain will be in Las Vegas and Palin will stop in Reno and Elko -- no details have been announced yet, but KOLO Eight will pass them along to you as soon as times and locations are known.

The GOP is also bringing Mitt Romney, actors John Voight and John Ratzenberger to the biggest little city.  For details: http://www.kolotv.com/blogs/masterblogpage/33539409.html.

Additionally, the GOP invites you to 'meet the parents.'  Sarah Palin's parents and her husband Todd Palin's parents will be in Fallon on Friday, Oct. 31.  They'll be at Republicans HQ at 116 South Main from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.  Palin's family members will also be at McCain Victory HQ in Reno on Saturday, Nov. 1 at 3 p.m. -- that's at 3702 South Virginia Street near the Atlantis hotel.

Meanwhile, Senator Barack Obama will be in Southern Nevada this Saturday -- his 20th stop of the campaign in this key swing state.  The Democrats e-mailed me a list of Nevada events for the final days leading up to the election:
