General election
Campaign
Clavelle attempted to link Douglas and President George W. Bush with bumper stickers saying "Jim = George".[2] Douglas countered this by a willingness to criticize the national Republican Party, such as over the Bush administration's environmental policies.[3]
The two main candidates faced each other in 18 debates during the campaign.[4]
