Chelsea denied access in Puerto Rico
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) - May 14, 2008 Hillary Rodham Clinton's campaign wanted to use the land
Wednesday as a setting to discuss the candidate's clean up plan for
the region and call to give some areas to local residents.
But Navy spokeswoman Lt. Lara Bollinger said no one is allowed
to campaign on federal property.
Chelsea Clinton is making her second campaign visit to Puerto
Rico in the last three weeks. The U.S. territory has 55 delegates
at stake in its June 1 Democratic primary.
The Navy closed the range in Vieques in April 2003 following
years of protests after two errant bombs killed a security guard.
