    I could be mistaken (and I'm sure that someone will correct me if I'm
    wrong), but I believe that Josie Heath is the only woman running for
    the U.S. Senate this year.  Since this conference is *woman*notes, I
    started this topic because I thought that her campaign just might
    conceivably be a subject of interest to women in general, or at least
    those women who reside within the U.S.

    Having made that comment, I now return this notes conference to its
    regularly scheduled, ubiquitous discussions about a particular election
    between two male candidates for the Governorship of one of the 50
    states that compose the United States.

    Well, she is way behind in the polls at this point, so it doesn't sound
    like she has a chance anyway.  She defeated Carlos Lucero for the
    Democratic party nomination; her Republican opponent, Hank Brown, ran
    unopposed in the primary.  I guess tomorrow we'll see if it turns out
    to be a landslide for Brown.

366.6Senator Nancy Kassebaum running for re-electionCLAY::HUXTABLESoul, renounce suffering; you have danced on the face of the sunTue Nov 06 1990 15:1816
re 366.3:

    Josie Heath isn't the only one.  Nancy (Landon) Kassebaum, Republican from
    Kansas, is running for re-election to the U.S. Senate.  She is opposed by
    Dick Williams, a Democrat with no experience in public office.

    As for governor's races...this year in Kansas we apparently have a choice
    between "a boob with nuts and a nut with boobs."  The incumbent, Republican
    Mike Hayden, is almost universally unpopular, largely because of some state
    economic difficulties.  His opponent, Democrat Joan Finney, is strongly
    supported by some pro-life groups, but has also stated that a "morning-
    after Pill" or D&C is not an abortion but a way of preventing pregnancy. 
    Also, despite her experience as State Treasurer she seems to have very
    little grasp of the realities of the state economy.
