Groups Prepare
For Elections
Washington (JTA) — With
1994 just around the corner,
Jewish politicos in both par-
ties are already gearing up
for the important 1994
midterm elections and look-
ing even further ahead to
the presidential election of
1996.
Pro-Israel political ac-
tivists noted this week with
some concern that the polit-
ical climate is currently vol-
atile, with many incumbents
already announcing they
will not seek re-election in
1994.
This volatility, they say,
could lead to a turnover rate
even higher than that of the
1992 election, when there
were 110 freshman members
of Congress.
And that trend in turn
could affect pro-Israel in-
cumbents with seniority on
important committees who
are up for reelection.
One-third of the Senate
and the entire House of
Representatives will be
elected next November, in
addition to gubernatorial
and local races around the
country.
Of the record 10 Jews now
serving in the Senate, four
are up for re-election in
November and one, Sen.
Howard Metzenbaum, D-
c Ohio, has announced he
will not seek another term.
Jewish activists say they
will miss the 76-year-old
Metzenbaum, who has been
active on both foreign and
domestic issues important to
the Jewish community.
His son-in-law, Joel Hyatt,
who is viewed as pro-Israel,
is running for his seat.
Neither Sen. Joseph
Lieberman, D-Conn., who
sits on the Armed Services
Committee and has been ac-
tive on Jewish issues, nor
Sen. Herbert Kohl, D-Wis.,
who is on the key Appropria-
tions Committee, is viewed
as facing a particularly
difficult race.
But Sen. Frank
Lautenberg, D-N.J., is seen
as facing a tough challenge
from the Republican speaker
of the New Jersey House,
Chuck Haytain, who is close
to incoming Republican New
Jersey Gov. Christine Todd
Whitman.
Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif.,
who was elected in 1992 to a
special two-year Senate
term, is running again,
against freshman House
Rep. Michael Huffington, R-
Calif.
Ms. Feinstein, as an in-
cumbent, may have prob-
lems with the weak state of
California's economy.
Another pro-Israel senator
up for re-election is Sen.
Connie Mack, R-Fla. Ms.
Mack, who is not Jewish,
faced a tough race the last
time around.
And senators retiring after
this year include some who
have been friends of the pro-
Israel community, including
Sen. Dennis DeConcini, D-
Ariz.
Rep. Sam Coppersmith, D-
Ariz., a freshman who is
Jewish, is considering- runn-
Howard Metzenbaum:
Will not run again.
ing for DeConcini's seat, as
is Rep. Jon Kyl, R- Ariz.,
who is viewed favorably by
pro-Israel activists.
In Connecticut, the pro-
Israel community is keeping
an eye on the re-election bid
of Democratic Rep. Sam Ge-
jcienson, a high- ranking
Jewish member of the House
Foreign Affairs Comitiittee
who has been active on pro-
Israel causes. Mr. Gejdenson
just squeaked by on his 1992
re-election bid.
And some anticipate a
close race coming up for Rep.
Nita Lowey, D-N.Y., a pro-
Israel member who sits on
the key Foreign Operations
subcommittee of the Ap-
propriations Committee.
Meanwhile, Jewish Repub-
licans, buoyed by Repub-
lican wins in the 1993 state
and local elections, are talk-
ing about building on that
success in 1994 and beyond.
The National Jewish Co-
alition, a Washington-based
group promoting ties bet-
ween the Republican Party
and the Jewish community,
is reaching out around the
country to establish grass-
w roots ties.
Matt Brooks, the group's
executive director, said that
