GENE RANDALL, CNN ANCHOR: Bush today is campaigning in New York and Connecticut. CNN's Pat Neal joins us from Binghamton, New York -- Pat.</s>PAT NEAL, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Hi, Gene. Today, within the hour, George Bush will come here to Binghamton to join with the people of Binghamton for an early St. Patrick's Day parade. And as you can see, the folks are already gathered along the street to participate in the parade. Bush has been hopscotching across New York for two days. New York has 93 delegates at stake on Tuesday. They are awarded proportionately. Bush campaign with former presidential candidate Elizabeth Dole, trying to solidify support among women. Today he received the formal endorsement of New Jersey governor Christine Todd Whitman, who's a moderate. Bush hopes this will also sway McCain leading Republicans his way. The race is tight. McCain narrowed that gap after attacking Bush for not denouncing Bob Jones University's anti-Catholic stance. Catholics make up about 50 percent of New York Republicans. After today's parade, Bush will go on to Connecticut. Connecticut also has a primary on Tuesday, and there are 25 delegates up for grabs for the Republicans there, and it is winner-take-all -- Gene.</s>RANDALL: Thank you, Pat.
