invite a rabbi, minister, reverend
or some other clergy to lead us in
prayer."
His opponent, Dr. Frumin,
highlighted his positions on a va-
riety of issues. He told the audi-
ence, "I support a balanced
budget, a woman's right to
choose, campaign finance reform
and additional police on the
streets."
When Mr. Pappageorge was
asked what government pro-
grams he considers dead weight
and where he would make cuts,
the candidate singled out the De-
partment of Education and the
Department of Energy. "I'd leave
the programs that are doing their
job, like Head Start," he said.
Both Carl and Sander Levin
were asked to explain their re-
cent votes for the welfare reform
bill, particularly the provision
that cut assistance to legal im-
migrants.
Sen. Levin said he supported
the measure because he felt it
was time to place limits on cash
benefits. He said the provisions
for legal immigrants went too far,
but that the welfare system need-
ed reform.
His brother said, "I voted for
the bill because some of the wel-
fare to work provisions were so
strong. The original version of the
bill had no provision for health
care or means for helping states
in a time of recession. We forced
changes so AFDC [Aid to Fami-
lies with Dependent Children] is
sound.
"As far as the provisions on le-
gal immigrants, my brother, my-
self and the president will go back
and fix what's been done."
Bingo, bears, casinos and veterans —
they're all on the Nov. 5 ballot.

Paul Welday spoke on behalf
of Republican candidate Ronna
Romney. He answered questions
about her views on taxes and the
Middle East. He said Ms. Rom-
ney believes the tax structure
should be reformed. Two of the
ideas he discussed were a 50-per-
cent cut in the capital gains tax
and a repeal of a 1993 tax levied
on gas and senior citizens.
Ms. Romney's stance on the
Middle East, he said, is that the
United States' role shouldn't ex-
tend much beyond doing what it
can to bring both parties togeth-
er.
Kenneth Proctor, the Liber-
tarian candidate, was asked
about his party's connection with
an anti-Semitic group. He said
he was not familiar with any
such ties.
"Libertarians are the most
gender-blind and ethnic-blind
group there is," he said.
Martin McLaughlin, a candi-
date from the Socialist Equality
Party, described his group as an
alternative for "the working peo-
ple who are not represented by
the Democratic or Republican
parties."
Republican Rep. Joe Knollen-
berg and his challengers, Demo-
crat Dr. Morris Frumin and
Libertarian Dick Gach, and De-
mocratic Rep. Sander Levin and
his Republican challenger, John
Pappageorge, also fielded ques-
tions.
Mr. Knollenberg said he is pro-
life, except in cases of rape or in-
cest. He remains undecided on
school prayer. "The problem is,
it's not that big of a deal," he said.

,
and opponents:
Proposal A would amend
certain sections of Michigan's
bingo act. It would prohibit can-
didates from raising money
through gaming such as bingo or
raffles.
For: Robert Labrant, vice
president of political affairs with
the Michigan Chamber of Com-
merce.
Mr. Labrant maintains that
political bingo creates loopholes,
allowing candidates to skirt cam-
paign finance laws.
"A yes vote on Proposal
A will restore bingo to
charitable organizations
like the original [1994]
law intended," he said.
Against: The Lans-
ing-based B.I.N.G.O.
(Bingo is Necessary for
Grassroots Organization) op-
poses Proposal A. The group
could not be reached for com-
ment.
