MAKE THE DIFFERENCE Your vote CAN MAKE THE DIFFERENCE. In 1978, only 31,000 votes were cast in the Republican primary for Harris County Treasurer. The GPC mailing list contains more than 11,000 names. Think about it. And vote Republican-for Van Ooteghem-just once. Your vote can make the difference.

"Rather than react to homophobes already seated on the bench, as has often been the action of the gay com- munity in the past," Valeska said, "we now seek to respond to nominations as and when they are made." Valeska further noted that Mel Boozer, NGTF's director of Civil Rights Advocacy, will coordinate and direct the efforts of the project through NGTF's Washington, D.C. office. Boozer ex- plained that the Task Force Washing- I LUCIA VALESKA, Executive Director, the National ton office constantly monitors vacan- Gay Task Force. cies throughout the country through contact with the Justice Department.

There are some 40 vacancies on the Federal bench right now, and before this administration is over, there will be numerous other openings. The impact on our commuity of these nominations will be felt for years, perhaps decades, to come. "For the first time," Boozer said, "our movement will be prepared to influence the process of selection." According to Boozer, the project is organized to go into action immediate- ly upon the announcement by the White House of a nominee for a Federal Courts post.
