Hillary Clinton cancels California trip, plans North Las Vegas visit Wednesday
September 11, 2016 - 7:51 pm
Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is scheduled to appear at noon Wednesday at the College of Southern Nevada’s Cheyenne Campus in North Las Vegas, her website revealed Sunday.
The website said doors will open at 10 a.m. and Clinton will speak at noon in the gym of the complex at 3200 E. Cheyenne Ave. The appearance is dubbed a “neighborhood event.” Her campaign Friday said Clinton will discuss her “vision for an America that is stronger together and to build an economy that works for everyone, not just those at the top.”
Clinton stumbled Sunday at an event commemorating the 15th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks at Ground Zero in New York and exited early. Dr. Lisa Bardack, Clinton’s physician, issued a statement saying the former secretary of state had been overheated.
Bardack added that Clinton was put on antibiotics and advised to rest and modify her schedule. It’s unclear whether this mandate will alter Clinton’s plan to visit the valley Wednesday. Late Sunday night, The New York Times reported, citing her campaign, that Clinton was canceling plans to visit California on Monday; she had planned to spend two days there.
Nevada is a competitive swing state in the presidential race between Clinton and Republican nominee Donald Trump. Both have appeared frequently in the state.
