Sundquist on tour NASHVILLE (AP) Gov. Don Sundquist and. his Cabinet are hitting the road. The five-city tour that kicks off Wednesday in Chattanooga is an effort to make state government more customer-friendly, Sundquist said.

The Republican governor is seeking re-election next year and, at this point, has no announced Democratic opposition. On Tuesday night, Sundquist will attend a $5,000 per couple fund-raiser, then he'll start his tour the next morning. Bob Corney, the Tennessee Democratic Party's acting executive director, questioned whether the public is footing the bill for the official business and political event.

More than a dozen communities across the state have started the process toward holding incorporation elections. Five of those areas are in Shelby County. Tennessee has 345 cities and 95 counties.
