VOTING: City power shifts with voters
Continued from Page 1A.
tent candidates running clean campaigns such as Blair and Buhler, voters on the east and west sides knew who they wanted, Shalinsky said.
But voting numbers show a certain pattern in the way neighborhoods voted. Jim Slattery, Democratic candidate for governor, did well east of Iowa Street, while Republican Bill Graves, the eventual winner, did well west of Iowa Street.
"I don't like making generalizations," she said. "I don't like stereotypes"
"You can't say Iowa Street is a hard dividing line," he said. "There are areas where it's kind of fuzzy. But usually, it goes along that line."
Susan Smith, head of the Douglas County Republican Committee, said that charting voters by ethnicity and income could be misleading. She said that not enough voters turned out to take an accurate sample of a neighborhood's political feelings.
"We can't seem to shake voter apathy," Smith said. "Can we show trends with that?"
Smith also said that appealing to voters was more important than worrying about demographics.
Judy Hancock, the Democrat who unsuccessfully challenged Republican Rep. Jan Meyers for the U.S. House of Representatives' 3rd District seat, won the majority of votes on the east side.
The same trend also applies to state legislature rights, Shalinsky said. In the Kansas House of Representatives 46th District, Democrat Troy Findley defeated Republican Eric Schmidt in large part because of the students, lower-income families and other traditional Democratic supporters in
the east-side area.
In the 45th District, which combines some east-side precincts and rural precincts west of Lawrence, incumbent Democrat Forrest Swall won the east side areas but lost the rural and suburban areas to Republican Tom Sloan, the eventual victor.
But the trend doesn't work in everyrace, Shalin-sky said. Voters across the city rejected Ron Todd, the Republican incumbent insurance commissioner, whose campaign was tainted by accusations of impropriety.
sales tax will have more effect on lower-income consumers.
The only two precincts to vote against the 1-cent county sales tax were east-side precincts, where the
"There are enough open-minded Republicans and independents so that when they get a crook or an idiot, they vote for the Democrat," Shalinsky said.
Shalinsky said the trends had been present in Lawrence for a long time. Usually, older parts of town vote Democratic or for neighborhood-coalition candidates. The newer suburbs vote Republican or for business-oriented candidates. The older suburbs tend to be a tossup.
The voting trend also applied to the city's two ballot issues, he said. Nine of the 10 precincts that voted against the building of a second Lawrence high school came from the east side. Residents there have said they feared that the new school, which will be built on the west side, would become a school primarily for the west side's white, middle-income population, leaving old Lawrence High School for the rest of the city's teen-agers.

But Lawrence development during the past few years has added a large number of people to Lawrence's west-side population. Many of those new residents vote, giving added weight to west-side precincts. At the same time, the quick growth rate has overwhelmed the aging — and liberalizing — of older Lawrence suburbs.
"If you had a map of Lawrence five years ago, most of the stuff in the western precincts wouldn't be on the map," Shailinsky said.
AFRICAN: Students learn African culture

cer." he said.
Cantero said a particular area of interest for him was African dance and music.
"The music is great," he said. "It's hypnotic."
Beverly Pardue, Lawrence resident,
said that she and her husband David,
a librarian at Watson Library, also
had attended the event because of their interest in other cultures. The Pardues participate in the Lawrence Host Family Program, a nonresidential program that helps international students acclimate themselves to American culture.
This year, the Pardues are sponsoring a student from Malawi, a country in southeast Africa.
"By learning about other cultures,
we close the circle a little bit," Beverly Pardue said.
The African and African-American Studies departments' 25th anniversary also were honored.
Fetzi Ngopee, Johannesburg, South Africa, graduate student and president of the African Affairs Student Association, said that the association would be celebrating the anniversary throughout the year.
