Bush filed for re-election with the Federal Election Commission (FEC Form One and FEC Form Two) as "Bush-Cheney '04 Inc.". --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wednesday 7 May, 2003 - Cheney Agrees to Run with President Bush in '04. Vice President Richard B. "Dick" Cheney has agreed to be President George W. Bush's running mate should, as is widely anticipated, the President be a candidate for re-election in 2004. Mr. Cheney's decision seemingly puts an end to speculation that his long history of heart-related medical problems might cause him to not seek another term as Vice President and thereby force President Bush to find another running mate in any quest by the Republican for a second term in the White House. Many Democrats have long felt that the chances for a Democratic victory in the 2004 Presidential election would increase significantly should Mr. Cheney not be able to run on the GOP ticket and Mr. Bush then make a less than popular choice as a replacement. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuesday 6 May 2003 - Mitchell "Mitch" Daniels, DIRECTOR OF THE OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET resigns effect 6 June 2003. http://www.thegreenpapers.com/Hx/BushAdministration.html#mdaniels --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Saturday 3 May 2003 - Special Election in Texas CD 19 http://www.thegreenpapers.com/G03/TX.phtml#H19 Special Election in Texas CD 19 to fill the seat of Republican Congressman Larry Combest whose resignation is effective on 31 May 2003.
