Republicans look to November
When they need to get out the Republican voters
Dy DIUUKS Udr Cl I
Of the Emerald
Last week's local election figures give
Republicans cause to worry, according to one of
Oregon's three Republican National Committee
persons.
For the first time in history, Oregon
Republicans — already outnumbered by
Democrats statewide — voted at a lower rate than
Democrats, said Peter Murphy, who addressed
about 30 members and guests of the Rubicon
Society at the Colonial Inn Restaurant in Eugene
Thursday.
Statewide figures are not yet available, but in
Lane County, 55.5 perecnt of registered
Democrats voted May 15, compared to 53.68 per
cent of registered Republicans.
Republicans will be cutting as fine a line with
a comparable turnout in the general election this
fall, Murphy said.
"If we're only going to send 50 percent to the
polls," he said, "we're going to find out Nov. 6
we've been thrown out."
Owless he conducts a vigorous campaign,
Murphy "said, one of those casualties could be
Sen. Mark Hatfield, who received 207,735 votes in
the Republican primary. Hatfield's opponent in
the general election is Eugene Sen. Margie Hen
ri riksen, who won 243,011 votes May 15.
"No incumbent is safe. I think even Sen. Hat
field realizes that," Murphy said.
Murphy urged Republicans not to take any
I
race ror granted, dui would not concede any races
to Democratic incumbents either — including
five-term Fourth District Rep. )im Weaver, who
faces Douglas County Commissioner Bruce Long
in November.
"I think he (Long) is ahead of where Ross was
two years ago at this stage," Murphy said, in
reference to Ross Anthony, who lost to Weaver by
20 percentage points in 1982.
Murphy said Republicans should be proud of
the quality of the primary winners, on the local,
state and national levels.
"But the Democrats have done almost as
good a job," he said.
"Despite what we hear about infighting bet
ween Mondale, Hart and Jackson, from the top to
the bottom they are as well organized as any op
position party I've seen," said Murphy, who was
first elected to the National Committee in 1980,
when with Jimmy Carter in the White House, the
Republicans were the opposition party.
Murphy predicted that, if nominated, Mon
dale would choose Hart as his running mate —
and that Hart would accept. Ronald Reagan and
George Bush (in 1980), and John Kennedy and
Lyndon Johnson (in 1960) were considered ir
reconcilable, he said, but as teams both sets of
primary opponents were able to win the
presidency.
"That was the mistake (Former Pres. Gerald)
Ford made by not asking Ronald Reagan to be his
running mate in 1976," Murphy said.
