Bush and Clinton face primaries amid Perot intrigue
Arkansas, Kentucky and Idaho hold presidential contests as Bush and Clinton seek to extend momentum after routs, while Perot looms as a potential independent factor. Clinton eyes home-state boost and Kentucky victory to edge nearer 2,145 delegates. Bush seeks to cement undefeated run over Buchanan. Idaho offers 14 GOP delegates. Dems view the day as beauty contest with impact limited to later contests. Clinton campaigns in Arkansas then heads to Ohio and New Jersey amid calls to address unemployment and health care, as Perot’s rise reshapes strategies for November.
