Kerry Picks Up Endorsement on Primary Day
Polls showed Kerry well ahead of Howard Dean and John Edwards in the contest for Wisconsin's 72 delegates. Both candidates have vowed to remain in the race regardless of their showings in Wisconsin. Dean has yet to win a delegate election, and Edwards has won only in his native South Carolina.

Kerry picked up the endorsement of the Alliance for Economic Justice, a 19-union organization that switched its support from Rep. Dick Gephardt (news - web sites) to Kerry after the Missouri congressman dropped out of the race. Kerry told AEJ members at a rally Tuesday morning that Bush had not been an advocate for the firefighters, police and other emergency workers with whom he stood and mourned after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

1. Boots on the ground
I worked in political action for a union for many years. There's nothing like organized GOTV.

2. Hasn't Dean won in DC?
Not sure, but I vaguely remember he did win there.
