A selected group of Seniors were chosen to question the candidated on specific issues. Bob Daniel has been a U.S. Congressman for eight years and has created a reputation as an intelligent and hardworking representative. Dur- ing these eight years, he has acquired the ability to understand and speak out on the issues which will affect not only the Fourth District but the nation as well. He agrees that government spending must be controlled and taxes lowered. Daniel sets National Defense as a priority for America. The U.S. must protect the security and interests of the American people. He has taken a special interest in environ- mental, historic and neighborhood conservation issues. His campaign slogan reminded the con- stituents of his accomplishments while in Con- gress: YOU KNOW HE WORKS FOR YOU. Cecil Jenkins, presently serving on Chesapeake City Council believed the Fourth District needed a real representative. His stand on the issues showed a deep concern for the welfare of the peo- ple in the Fourth District and the Nation. He felt, as does Congressman Daniel, that government spending must be controlled in order to end the high rate of inflation. However, although, Jenkins Mr. Cecil Jenkins views were similiar to those of Daniel, Mr. Jenkins did not have the experience needed to defeat Dan- iel. The citizens of the Fourth District have seen the results of Daniel’s hard work as a Congress- 16 man and know he’ll continue to work for them.
