Romney to visit Reno on Tuesday

CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney plans to visit Reno on Tuesday to address the National Guard convention.

The visit will come a day before President Barack Obama holds a grassroots rally in Las Vegas on Wednesday as the White House race kicks into overdrive after the two parties' nominating conventions.

Romney's vice presidential running mate, Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan, was campaigning in Sparks on Friday, his second visit to the state in three weeks.

Nevada is one of eight battleground states that will determine who wins the Nov. 6 election, and the race here and nationwide is too close to call.

Obama wrapped up the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte on Thursday night. It was a week after Romney accepted the GOP nomination in Tampa.
