I ask you to look out not only for yourselves, but for others, too," Clinton said in his acceptance speech. "We're all in this together. This has been my attitude for the past 13 months of my campaign, and it will be my attitude for the next four years." Clinton said he felt "wonderful" as he wrapped up a campaign in which he cast himself as the candi- date of new economic opportunity and appealed over and over for vot- ers to summon the "courage to change." Bush vowed to ensure a "smooth transition of power" to the new pres- ident. He said he had telephoned his congratulations to Clinton and added, "I wish him well in the White House. Regardless of our differ- ences, all Americans share the same purpose." Independent Perot said "the peo- ple have spoken," and offered his congratulations to Clinton. In Michigan - a key state in the race for the White House - Detroit Mayor Coleman Young celebrated the Democratic victory. "It is all over Mr. Bush. A new day has dawned on the Potomac and ... a new day has dawned on the American people," Young said. Clinton swept Michigan, taking 48 percent of the vote, compared to Bush's 35 percent and Perot's 17 percent. But, Sen. Don Riegle (D-Flint) warned that Clinton's real challenge lies ahead. "As hard as this campaign has been, the really tough job begins tomorrow and he is going to need 00 f rA ........... ............. .. ................... ................... % ......... .......... ............. each one of you more than he did before," Riegle said. "With this vic- tory comes the responsibility and the duty to lead." Ed McNamara, a Wayne county executive, quipped that a Democrat victory has been a long time in coming. "It's been 24 years, but we did it ... I think we should ask for a re- count; we're not used to winning." At local campaign headquarters, Republicans offered explanations for Bush's loss. . "Obviously, we didn't do a good enough job regarding the president's vision for the future and weren't able to convince people that the types of changes George Bush wanted to make for the country were the types of changes they believe in," said David Doyle, chair of the state Republican party. Michigan Gov. John Engler said he expects that the people of Michigan are looking forward to the new Democrat-led administration, but added, "Now it's Bill Clinton's challenge to deal with Republican governors and vice versa." Chuck Yaab of the Republican National Committee said Bush was hurt by the student vote. "They were looking for a change they said. Clinton sounded the best on the TV camera. They were frus- trated with Bush." - Daily Staff Reporters Saloni Janeveja, Nicole Malenfant, Marc Olender, Purvi Shah, Shannon Unger, and Chastity Wilson con- tributed to this report 270 ELECTORAL VOTES NEEDED TO WIN Bush Clinton Perot ~~ Bush 121 363 0 Alabama Alaska Arizona Arkansas California Colorado Connecticut Delaware D.C.

LEVY/Daily S, e fi e' s pBL oaa ke eR . , P+SSe y oo ';R l FORD Continued from page 1 were students." Ford campaigned strongly for Democratic president-elect Bill Clinton. He appeared with Clinton at the Ann Arbor rally after the third presidential debate. Mike Russell, Ford's press secre- tary, said Ford is looking forward to working with the president-elect. "We've got a new president and he sure is a dandy one," Ford said. However, some volunteers said Ford didn't need Clinton's coattails for a victory. "Bill Ford is running indepen- dently from Clinton because he has been in Congress for such a long time," said full-time Ford volunteer Robin Dronse. Ford praised the record voter turnout on cam pus and in Washtenaw County. "I've never seen as much dedica- tion from the people. They have taken time off on their jobs to vote. We are going to make them all proud of us," Ford said. Kirk Profit (D-Ypsilanti) also credited the Democratic victories to the voter turnout. "Student participation in the camapaigns has been a refreshing change. They choose their own des- tiny. There's hope that America can restore its greatness." The closing of the Willow Run General Motors plant will be a major event in the district. Willow Run employee Richard Hess, said, "This is the first time I have voted for a Democratic ticket. The Republican party has gone away from mainstream America. Bush has personally been responsible in my eyes for closing the Willow Run plant." Lincoln High School senior Eric Frazier said, "I feel that students have caused more people to vote. Students have become more in- volved in the campaign. I support the Democrats as a whole." Geake volunteer and LSA first- year student Mike Christie said the campaign was worth his time. "It really hasn't been hard, I used to debate in high school against a lot of liberal students and I'm used to having to defend my views." - Daily Staff Reporters Nate Hurley and Christine Young con- tributed to this report RIVERS Continued from page 1 when 27 of 42 precincts had re- ported, Rivers won 56 percent of the vote, while Bertram captured 46 percent. The winner credited her victory to her largely democratic district, specifically the U-M campus where she said she focused a large amount of time wooing student votes. "The students certainly came through," she said. Edith Nickel, an Ann Arbor resi- dent and professor at Eastern Michigan University agreed. "We got a lot of younger folks out cam- paigning. Soon they will carry the torch for us." Rivers also attributed her victory to her pro-choice stance on abortion, saying her opponent is not a champion of abortion rights. "We need to code Roe vs. Wade into the Michigan Constitution as quickly as possible because it has worked for us and it should be the law of the land," she said in an in- terview earlier this month. "(Bertram) has been clear on his right-to-life position." Bertram noted that he and Rivers held very similar views on key issues in the Ann Arbor community, such as tax reform and education. "I feel good about what we've done in the campaign, contrasting me and my opponent," he said. "We've stayed with the focus on meaningful tax reforms, including education and the economy. "I intend to stay involved and engaged in the political process," Bertram said. "Aside of the issues I have conveyed the ability to make things happen and the ability to work together despite differences of party affiliation." Despite Bertam's loss, Dale Apley, an executive with the Republican campaign in Washtenaw county, said Bertram garnered more votes than President Bush in many precincts. Rivers said President-elect Bill Clinton's triumphant campaign bol- stered her bid for state office. "It really was a back and forth, a give and take relationship," she said. Rivers previously served as. a trustee to the Ann Arbor Board of Education for three terms, also serving as board president for three terms. Her victory immediately inspired a celebration of what has been called the "year of the woman." "Its going to be real exciting to live in a community where the mayor is a woman, both state reps are women and the state senator is a woman," Rivers said. "Its not exactly the year of the woman, its the year of the woman who worked hard," she added. Rivers' policy goals include de- creasing property taxes to entice businesses into Michigan, improving the state's infrastructure, and reeval- uating public colleges and universi- ties to minimize overlapping pro- grams at smaller schools. -Daily Staff Reporters Megan Lardner and Adam Anger contributed to this report es Center S withyour host Josh Berg. and student comedians Brian Radbill Chris Curtis or more information dial 763-1107 University Activiti 1 a le 0r i rte' i las ma5 eeting ass rn 4, rpm # Iast m 11 ra Ve~ba ntroduce over 1000 students or parents to the U of M work on a diverse and exciting team run workshops and presentations nake new friends, stay in Ann Arbor for the summer qualifications -enrollment in fall 1992 and winter 1993 -good academic standing -at least sophomore class level compensation -room may 2 to august 14 -board june 1 to august 14 -stipend $2000.000 COP ES 4m REG.
