The Michigan Daily - Monday, October.27, 1986 - Page 9g - - _ _...._ __ ----- - _ ._, ., ,. ..,..,: I Dems, Republicans seek control in Senate WASHINGTON (AP)-The last full week of the unpredictable campaign for Senate control opened yesterday with Democrats confidently predicting their candidates can withstand a last- minute Republican injection of money and well-orchestrated appearances by President Reagan. Republicans said they were just as confident that a nine-state blitz this week by the president- as well as broadcast advertisements featuring Reagan in virtually every state- will keep GOP majority in the Senate, if only narrowly. Thirty-four states will be picking senators on Nov. 4 and the GOP's fragile 53-47 Senate majority is on the line. Arithmetic is on the side of the Democrats because Republicans are defending 22 of the 34 seats at stake while only 12 are held by Democrats. Reagan is trying to offset that arithmetic with the strength of his personal popularity. The idea is to persuade voters who gave him landslide national victories in 1980 and 1984 tp give the same support now to GOP candidates in individual races. His travel schedule this week is a political road map to some of the closest races. House Republicans, resigned to slipping even further into the minority in next week's elections, are hoping to strike at least a symbolic protest blow when President Reagan campaigns for one of their most visible candidates on Wednesday. Reagan will take time out of his final push for GOP Senate candidates to visit Evansville, Ind" in the battlefield for one of the most bitterly contested House races in the nation. It's the only House race to draw a personal Reagan visit by itself this election season. The party out of control of the White House generally picks up House seats in a year with no national election.

"We would surely welcome him back though," Porter added. Fleming feels that the decision to remain as president is very much up to the individual and depends on many factors, such as if he has maintained his interest and reputation in his field of expertise.
