Periscope ’80 Elections: Who Cares? The fall campaign was one of the dullest in recent memory. Most people seemed to find it hard to get excited about either candidate for the President. As a result only 50% of the voters nationwide even both- ered to go to the polls. It was no better on the local level. Only the incumbents filed for the state repre- sentative position and mayoral post, and no one filed at all for council positions, leaving the posts to be filled at the whim of write-ins on election day. Strike Shuffles Fall Schedules For television addicts, the worst of all possible calamities hit in mid-August. The Screen Actors Guild went out on strike, stopping production of all programs for the season which hadn’t even begun. The strike lasted two months, which necessitated a fall of reruns and no new season until November. Electronic advancements formed the core of the issues to be considered. Actors wanted part of the profit from the sale of videotapes and Cable TV pro- gramming. Although actors didn't get all they demanded, apparently enough could be agreed to, and production began in mid-October. To Debate or Not to Debate? After the fairly successful Presidential debates in 1976, the League of Women Voters had hopes of repeating during this year’s election. The problem was identifying who was a viable candidate. While both Reagan and Carter were obvious choices as major party candidates, independent John Anderson seemed to have enough support to make it hard to just ignore him. In early September, because John Anderson appeared to have 15% support in the national polls, the League invited all three men to a debate. President Carter, feeling he couldn’t grant authenticity to Anderson’s campaign, declined a 3- man debate. Reagan, feeling he had done well saw no point in further 2-man debates, and it appeared there would be no more scheduled debates. As the campaign drew to a close, however, Anderson had dropped in the polls, and Reagan’s momentum had stalled. As a result, the League invited the two lead- ing candidates to a final debate, which both did accept. The debate was held October 28. Hostages Become Election Pawns Rumors ran wild in the final days before the elec- tion that the return of the 52 American hostages held for 1 year in Iran might be returned. Skeptics saw it as an attempt by the Iranians to influence the American elections. Although Khomeini had spent years denouncing Carter, he apparently preferred his reelection to the election of Reagan. Whatever its source, it proved to be unbased. Moscow Olympics Glamour Dimmed Black clouds hung over the Moscow Olympics as a result of President Carter’s boycott call. Over 30 nations did not attend this year’s games. Because major competitiors like the U.S. and Canada were not in attendance, the communist bloc totally domi- nated the winning of the gold, silver, and bronze. While it isn’t all that unusual for Russia and East Germany to dominate in the competition with their “amateur” athletes, somehow their victories this year carried very little significance. The very future of the Olympics seemd at stake. Periscope 5
