DARYN KAGAN, CNN ANCHOR: We want to go live now to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where we want to hear from vice presidential candidate Dick Cheney.

(JOINED IN PROGRESS)

DICK CHENEY (R), VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: We really enjoyed the opportunity to travel all across the country and meet so many people. And this is a very important day. I want to make sure I urge everybody out there to take advantage of the opportunity today to go vote. We're going to elect the president and vice president of the United States.

And it looks like it will be a close election, but I think one that will hopefully lead to our victory tonight. But, again, I would urge everybody out there today to exercise their constitutional right to vote today.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Thank you, Mr. Secretary.

CHENEY: Thank you all very much.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Thank you.

KAGAN: And a few words there from vice presidential running mate Dick Cheney. We just saw him cast his vote in Jackson Hole, Wyoming just a few minutes ago. He will be heading down to Austin, Texas where, as we understand it, George W. Bush will be casting his vote about -- sometime within the next half hour.
