The Michigan Daily - Wednesday, November 5, 1986 - Page 3 Bullard, Pollack beat GOP challengers By STEVE BLONDER and MICHAEL LUSTIG State Democratic incumbents Sen. Lana Pollack and Rep. Perry Bullard kept their seats in the Michigan Senate and House both with a margin of about two-to-one, as of 1 a.m. this morning. Pollack defeated Dale Apley, and Bullard beat challenger Vic Holtz. With 55% of the vote counted in thel8th District, which includes all of Washtenaw County, Pollack had 22,496 or 66% of votes cast. Apley had 11,762 votes or 34%. Pollack was winning, a much higher percentage of votes cast in Ann Arbor and other areas of her district. "I'M REAL pleased with the news. Considering I had 51% four years ago, it is good," Pollack said. An enthusiastic supporter of James Blanchard, Pollack described the governor's win as one of "historic proportions," adding that "Michigan voters won't settle for cut-rate education." Pollack has put much effort into helping the University during her term in the Senate. She has tried to. meet all the University's appropriations requests while aiming to keep tuition down. H OLTZ, who had 7,616 votes or 33%, conceded his loss to Pollack by saying: "The major reason I ran is the fact that Perry Bullard has gone without serious competition for the past 12 years. When that happens an official loses his accountability to his constituents, also people lose touch with the way in which he is voting in the state legislature. "The two factors that hurt me was the landslide by Blanchard and Baker mobilizing many of the Ann Arbor residents. Right now the question is what do we do in '88. I am committed to the Republican party to run against Bullard again in 1988. My campaign people assembled and asked me tonight 'when do we meet again?"' Bullard, who had 67% or 15,132 votes has also done much work on the Univerity's behalf. Some of his pending legislation includes the Student's Bill of Rights and a move to put a student regent on the University Board of Regents. Bullard was unable to comment last night because he is in Juigalpa, Nicaragua visiting Ann Arbor's new sister city. Voters did a lot of ticket- splitting when casting their ballots. Republican candidate for governor, William Lucas, was winning only 27% of votes cast, but Rep. Carl Pursell was winning some traditionally Republican districts by more than a two to one margin over Democratic challenger Dean Baker. That, howeever, did not seem to help Apley, who when he beat Pollack in a precinct, usually did so by a narrow margin. CLASSES STARTING . .NOVEMBER & JANUARY 203 E. Hoover 662-3149 CALL DAYS.

The race was still close at press time, however. Brown and Waters both led with 2 percent of the vote counted, but Republican challenger Cynthia Hudgins trailed Waters by less than 1 percent. Hudgins, an assistant to Rep. Carl Pursell(R.-Mich.), said she might consider running again if she lost. " I don't close any doors," she said. Hudgins said she will not give up her position with Pursell if elected, because the regents only meet two daya every month. Brown was leading with 19, 337 votes, Waters had 16, 797, Hudgins had 16, 229 and Republican candidate Gary Frink trailed with 15, 570. 165 of 6,832 precincts had reported.

Still vulnerable as the votes were being tallied were freshman colleagues Mack :Mattingly of Georgia, James Abdnor of South Dakota, Mark Andrews of North Dakota, Bob Kasten of Wisconsin and James Broyhill of North Carolina. The Democrats were expected to unseat the Republicans in North Carolina and Georgia, according to television networks. Meanwhile, President Reagan remained secluded as he watched last night's election returns in the White House, but spokesman Larry Speakes denied that the Democratic momentum in the Senate race reflected poorly on the President. THE REAGAN'S,who had voted by absentee ballot in California, left Los Angeles yesterday morning for the homeward leg of the president's 24,839-mile campaign trek trying to save the Senate for his Republican Party. Speakes called the Senate battle "still very, very close" and refused to predict any outcome and refused as well to discuss the see-saw returns in some of the states.

Pursell said the endorsement of 10 of .12 district newspapers helped him, as did the endorsement of the Michigan Farm Bureau. Baker supporters were surprised lent turiu and encouraged by the closeness of the race in the areas outside Ann Arbor. LSA senior Richard Bines, who canvassed for Baker in Ann Arbor, Livonia, and Jackson, said he was initially skeptical about Baker's chances. "Now my opinion has changed," he said. "He has a chance." Bines said he got a positive rut helps response while canvassing in the areas outside Ann Arbor. "People weren't saying they'll vote for him, but they're willing to read the literature," he said. Bines said that was good because "the main obstacle is ignorance." Bines said Baker's election would be a "clear rejection of Pursell, his votes, and the fact that he doesn't pay attention to his constituents" on issues like social spending and aid to the Nicaraguan Contras. Even if aker loses, Bines said, "it shows that Pursell better watch out in the future and better listen to his constituents in the future." State College Republican President Richard Tubbs was surprised at Baker's showing. Daily staff writers Steve Blonder Baker and Rob Earle and The Associated Press contributed to this story. * - - - - - --1- mmT Featured Topics Include: * Overview of the MCAT and its Purpose * The Most Difficult Section of the MCAT " Strategies for Concentrating Your Resources for Maximum Performance " How to Make Your 1O's-12's, 11's-3s + FREE Administration & Discussion of a MINI MCAT Exam Presented by EXCEL Test Preparation GUEST SPEAKER: NORMAN MILLER 8 P.M., TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 11th MICHIGAN UNION ANDERSON ROOMS ALL STUDENTS WELCOME - NO CHARGE I I Normandie I FlowersI 1104 S.

U U A101 Freshman Orientation Nothing could have prepared me for the first few moments with my roommate. "Anique"-nothing more, just "Anique"-was her name. Change the 'A"to a "U" and you've got a description. When they asked what type of roommate I wanted, I didn't know that I needed to be more specific than non- smoker. I could swear I saw a picture of Anique on a postcard I got from London. Within five minutes, I found out that she was an Art History stu- dent, into the Psychedelic Furs, and totally, totally against the domesti- cation of animals. I was just about ready to put in for a room transfer when she reached into her leather backpack, pulled out a can of Suisse Mocha and offered me a cup. Okay, I decided I'd keep an open mind. As we sipped our cups, I found out that Anique and I share the same fondness for Cary Grant movies, the same disdain for wine coolers, and the same ex-boyfriend. That gave us plenty to talk about. x 4 Furthermore Performances Early Music Ensemble - School of Music, 8 p.m., Blanche Anderson Moore Hall (763-4726).
