PRESS RELEASE

STATEMENT BY PETER KNIGHT
CAMPAIGN MANAGER

The Clinton/Gore '96 campaign committee fully supports the American Association of Political Consultants' call for a ban on "push polling." Push polling is an organized effort by campaigns to spread misinformation and rumors about other candidates. This reprehensible political tactic has no place in this campaign for President.

We have not and will not use this unethical political tactic. We call on all political parties to join us in denouncing the use of push polling in the 1996 Presidential race.
