He has just learned that a wealth businessman from northern California, Ron Unz, will soon announce as a Republican Candidate for Governor. Sam says this guy should be taken seriously, he has millions to spend and will run a Perot like campaign to defeat Wilson. Page 1 of 52 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu M E M 0 R A N D U M March 25, 1994 TO: SENATOR DOLE FROM: JIM WHITTINGHILL SUBJECT: ARCO CIVIC ACTION PROGRAM ARCO has some 48 Civil Action Programs (CAP) in its various operating areas around the country. The attached flyer explains their activities. As you will see, there are two in Kansas. This CAP is comprised of its headquarters employees; there headquarters tower is about two blocks from the hotel in which you will address them. Lod Cook will not be present, since he is on a somewhat hush,hush trip to Quatar. Monday will be the first Board meeting he will have missed since becoming Chairman (which will give you an indication of the importance they view the opportunity to operate there). Mike Bowlin (BOE lin), is being groomed by Cook to be the next Chairman. He has run several of ARCO's operating companies including the Oil and Gas and International Divisions. The coordinator is Margie MacAllister, the Manager of Political Affairs for ARCO. She has met you several times during your visits with Cook. They would like your regular stump speech, updating them on what you see going on in Washington. MacAllister mentioned three specific topics -- Superfund, China MFN and Health Care. It is very unlikely we will see Superfund this year. It may well be the worst program of the Federal government. After several billions of dollars, most money has gone either to lawyers or for "site characterization." Both sides agree it must be fixed, but neither has any idea how to accomplish that goal. Incineration seems to be best route, but strong opposition to that option has rendered it almost not possible. The next best option is probably to seal the existing sites, but that's not been highly popular for political reasons. The China MFN decision is due by June 3. ARCO is a self-insured company with respect to health care. ARCO still gets the bulk of its crude for its West Coast refineries from its share of the Alaska North Slope. With that production declining, foreign development is increasingly necessary.

  • California's Affirmative Action Fight
    Research & Occasional Paper Series: CSHE.5.18 UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY http://cshe.berkeley.edu/ The University of California@150* CALIFORNIA’S AFFIRMATIVE ACTION FIGHT: Power Politics and the University of California March 2018 John Aubrey Douglass** UC Berkeley Copyright 2018 John Aubrey Douglass, all rights reserved. ABSTRACT This essay discusses the contentious events that led to the decision by the University of California’s Board of Regents to end affirmative action in admissions, hiring and contracting at the university in July 1995. This was a significant decision that provided momentum to California’s passage of Proposition 209 the following year ending “racial preferences” for all of the state’s public agencies. Two themes are offered. In virtually any other state, the debate over university admissions would have bled beyond the confines of a university’s governing board. The board would have deferred to lawmakers and an even more complicated public discourse. The University of California’s unusual status as a “public trust” under the state constitution, however, meant that authority over admissions was the sole responsibility of the board. This provided a unique forum to debate affirmative action for key actors, including Regent Ward Connerly and Governor Pete Wilson, to pursued fellow regents to focus and decide on a hotly debated social issue related to the dispersal of a highly sought public good – access to a selective public university. Two themes are explored. The first focuses on the debate within the university community and the vulnerability of existing affirmative action programs and policies—including a lack of unanimity among the faculty regarding the use of racial preferences.

  • The Impact of a Candidate-Centered Initiative Campaign
    UC Irvine CSD Working Papers Title Initiatives as Running Mates: The Impact of a Candidate-Centered Initiative Campaign Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/92x0t2ts Author Salvanto, Anthony Publication Date 1998-02-15 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California CSD Center for the Study of Democracy An Organized Research Unit University of California, Irvine www.democ.uci.edu When states began ushering the popular ballot initiative into law in the early 20th century, it was heralded as a return of real and direct decision-making authority to the people. The Progressive reformers, who had spearheaded the initiative movement, foresaw voters taking up the pressing issues of the day one at a time, and considering those matters without regard for petty politics, partisanship, or special interests. Today, the Progressives' idyllic vision of an enlightened initiative voter weighing in on the issues before the polity has faded--replaced by one of a voter who instead looks for shortcuts to help him or her make quick sense of the measures. Often this involves looking toward a favored political figure--sometimes, a candidate running in the same election--for guidance on how to vote. Some partisan candidates are all too happy to oblige: many take full advantage of the dynamic, advocating initiatives which advance their own favored policies or ideologies. The degree to which voters connect a candidate choice and an initiative stance is important to how we interpret initiative results. If voters link support for a candidate with support for that candidate's favored initiative, and if they behave accordingly at the ballot box, then an initiative may be little more than an extension or echo of a campaign platform.

While it is not possible to predict how much money will be spent between now and November 2, it may be useful to compare the levels of spending in this year’s primary campaign with that of previous election cycles. In this report, “Breaking the Bank,” staff of the Fair Political Practices Commission determined the spending of each candidate in every California gubernatorial primary since 1978 and calculated the actual spending per vote cast—in 2010 dollars—as candidates sought their party’s nomination. The conclusion: over time, gubernatorial primary elections have become more costly and fewer people turnout at the polls. But that only scratches the surface of what has happened since 19781. Other highlights of the report include: Since 1998, the rise of the self-funded candidate has dramatically increased the cost of running for governor in California.
