TILE ISSUE

While some American and
European officials have expressed
concerns over the Israeli Likud
party's resolution opposing a
Palestinian state, other events in
Israel this week showed, that Israelis
live in a vibrant democracy and are
committed to peace.

BEHIND THE ISSUE

The day before the Likud party vote,
estimates were that close to 100,000
peace activists demonstrated in
downtown Tel Aviv. And two days
before the vote, a Maariv newspaper
poll revealed that a majority of
Israelis support negotiations based -
on land for peace. That same majori-
ty expressed support for a peace that,
if included in a comprehensive set-
tlement with all members of the
Arab League, also could include the
creation of a Palestinian state.

whether this is just an unusual year.
Republican Linda Lingle could make
political history on a number of fronts
if she defeats six other candidates in
Hawaii. The state has not had a
Republican governor in 40 years, but
Lingle, the head of the state's
Republican Party, is polling well and has
the highest favorable name recognition
in the field of candidates.
Lingle would become only the second
Jewish woman to serve as governor,
after Madeleine Kunin, who was
Vermont's governor from 1985 to 1991.
One Jew is certain to lose this
September as both former Labor
Secretary Robert Reich and former
Democratic National Committee
Chairman Steve Grossman are fighting
for the Democratic nomination in
Massachusetts.
They may be splitting the liberal
Jewish vote, but both are doing well.
If they make it through the June party
convention, either could be a player in
the toss-up race.
There are longer shots as well. Lois
Frankel is running against former
Attorney General Janet Reno in
Florida, and the Democratic primary
winner ultimately will have to contend
with Gov. Jeb Bush.
In Nevada, Democrat Matthew
Dushoff is running in the primary,
but Gov. Kenny Guinn's seat is con-
sidered safe. O
