MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — The Latest on campaign 2016 (all times Eastern):

5:00 p.m.

Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence is not saying whether he will release his tax returns — something he has not done in his current role as governor of Indiana.

Pence did not respond to questions by reporters in his hometown of Columbus, Indiana, Saturday, about whether he plans to release the returns. Pence’s running mate, Donald Trump, said he will not release his tax returns because he is under an ongoing audit.

A spokesman for the Indiana governor’s office referred all tax-related questions to his vice presidential campaign. The campaign did not respond to multiple messages left Friday inquiring whether Pence will release 10 years of returns.

Pence made several campaign appearances Saturday, boosting Indiana Lt. Gov. Eric Holcomb, who took the Republican vice presidential nominee’s spot on the state ballot for governor shortly after Pence was tapped.
