Moore says best shot not enough
United Press International
TOPEKA — Dennis Moore, the Johnson County Democrat who lost a bid to unseat Kansas Attorney General Bob Stephan, yesterday said his best shot to win the race wasn't good enough up against a well-entrenched, Republican incumbent.
Reached at the office where he serves as Johnson County district attorney, the solemn-voiced Moore said he ran a good campaign but could not overcome Stephan's widespread name identification and alliance with the predominant party in Kansas.
With 100 percent of the vote in,
Stephan had 435,646 votes, or 52
percent, to Moore's 389,859 votes,
or 47 percent.
"I expected to win," Moore said. "I had people tell me when I ran here against an incumbent 10 years ago that I couldn't win, but I did. And I frankly expected the same thing to happen here on a statewide basis."
Moore said he tried to contact Stephan on Tuesday night and yesterday morning to congratulate him, but Stephan was not available.
Gov. John Carlin yesterday called Moore one of the Democratic
Party's brightest political prospects and said he expected to see Moore run for major statewide office again. Moore said he would think about it.
Stephan defied the controversy over a sexual harassment lawsuit that had plagued him for more than a year.
In the three other races for state officers, state Treasurer Joan Finney easily won re-election. Insurance Commissioner Fletcher Bell overcame token opposition to win election to a seventh term and Bill Graves won the right to succeed his boss, Secretary of State Jack Brier.
TOPEKA — Gov. John Carlin said yesterday that he was elated about passage of the four major constitutional amendments on the general election ballot, but somewhat disappointed that more counties did not approve liquor by the drink.
With 100 percent of the vote accounted for, 487,996 voters, or 60 percent, approved the liquor amendment, while 325,423 voters, or 40 percent, rejected it.

About one-third of the state's 105 counties, or 36, approved the liquor amendment, amassing far more votes than the required simple majority to abolish the constitutional ban on the "open saloon."
Carlin happy with vote results
The counties that approved the amendment eventually will be able to offer liquor by the drink in public establishments where food sales constitute 30 percent of their total receipts. The Legislature still must adopt legislation to implement the change, so liquor by the
drink probably won't become effective until next summer.
Carlin also was happy with the strong support given
nari-mutuel betting, which was approved in 83 counties.
pari mutuel betting, which was approved in 63 counties.
Statewide, pari mutuel was favored by 481,561 voters,
or 60 percent, and was rejected by 323,612 voters, or 40
percent.
Before horse and dog racing can begin, the legislature must approve legislation to implement it, and it may take a year or more to erect race tracks and other facilities.
Voters also approved a statewide lottery, which could be implemented within a year. The measure passed with 514,198 votes in favor, or 64 percent.
Carlin said he was as excited about the passage of the property classification amendment as he was about approval of the liquor and gambling measures.
The measure is designed to mitigate the effects of a statewide reappraisal, which would otherwise dramatically increase property taxes on homeowners and farmers.
