"From coast-to-coast, right-wing candidates are donning moderate disguises in an attempt to dupe voters. We are going to unmask the stealth candidates on Halloween," NOW PAC Chair Patricia Ireland announced. "When you look at their records and supporters, there is no doubt that many conservative candidates like Peter Fitzgerald are trying to hide their real agendas. Voters must beware," Ireland warned.
NOW PACs volunteers in Illinois are organizing Halloween events to educate
voters about the candidates and their positions on issues of particular
importance to women. Activists will dress in costume to attract attention
to their message," Ireland said.
