Billy Harper announces "Race for Kentucky" bus tour.

The office of gubernatorial candidate for Governor, Billy Harper, has announced a bus tour. Here is the campaign's release:
Republican Billy Harper will officially kick off his gubernatorial campaign’s statewide bus tour, the Race for Kentucky, at 11 a.m. (CST) Wed., Jan. 31, with a rally at 960 N. HC Mathis Dr. in Paducah. The event will be streamed live via satellite for media affiliates across the state. "I will focus intently over the next few months on meeting my fellow Kentuckians and listening to their views on ways to move this state forward," Harper said. "Along the way, I will build the statewide grassroots network necessary to win this election by speaking in positive terms and offering positive solutions to the challenges we face."
Harper, president of Harper Industries, a family-owned and operated engineering and construction firm based in Paducah, will outline his vision for building a better Kentucky at the morning rally as he and running mate Dick Wilson turn their full attention to the campaign. They will end their day in Lexington with a public town hall meeting and grand opening ceremony for the campaign’s new state headquarters, located at 901 Richmond Rd. The town hall meeting, set for 5:30 p.m. (EST), signals the campaign’s official move for a statewide presence and will feature comments by Harper and Alois Moore, the campaign’s Political Director and official chairwoman. Video of the event will be uploaded to the bus tour’s official Web site, to be announced later this week, and will be available for viewing at www.YouTube.com.

Also, the Harper campaign wants you to go here to sign a petition to repeal the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT).
