24th, which forms the northern border of New York
state, iSkone of the East's most sprawling congressional distrias.
It cover^all of eight counties and parts of two others. Beginning
in the easkalong Lake Champlain, the 24th tracks north to the
Canadian bVder, west along the St. Lawrence River, then south
along Lake Ontario as far as Oswego. Its southern edge reaches
east to the ovskirts of metropolitan Albany. The Adirondack
Mountains maBe up much of the distria's middle.
Although theV is blue-collar industry along its waterways, the
24th is a mainly iyral distria that holds strongly to a Yankee
Republican traditioV The importance of defense-related facilities—including the AJmy's Fort Drum and Plattsburgh Air Force
Base—and the lack of VkSignificant minority population reinforce
the GOP strength.
The Republican Houskcandidate easily won the open House
seat in 1992; GOP Sen. AJfonse M. D'Amato swept the 24th's
counties, winning most wit\ 60 percent or more.
The distria's GOP tendenbes have remained solid despite its
rather stagnant economy, a lesult of its reliance on heavy
industry and its remote location\But economic concerns took a
toll on George Bush in 1992. Tfiough he carried all but two
counties in the 24th, his margins ^ere mainly meager pluralities.
He did, however, manage 53 pelcent in sparsely populated
Hamilton, the only county in New\York in which he won a
majority.
The counties that form the 24th's item border, Oswego,
Jefferson and St. Lawrence, are its mostl
iilous. Oswego has a
number of industrial employers, includiri an elearicity-generating plant, a paper mill, and a brewery. Th4 is a State University
of New York campus in the city of Os^ ego.
Industry in Jefferson County is centerel in Watertown, the
24ths largest city. Fort Drum, home
the Army's 10th
Mountain Division, is the driving economic rce: It has about
13,000 military and civilian employees. The N York Air Brake
Co., maker of air brakes for railcars, is a

Although Fort Drum, which received a heavy in'
new facilities during the 1980s, has not yet felt the
War fiscal squeeze, Plattsburgh Air Force Base (near
eastern edge) came close to the brink in 1991; it was on an
list of the military base-closing commission that year. Bi
escaped with most of its jobs intaa when the comm
decided to close Maine's Loring Air Force Base instead.

9th District
Puget Sound — Tacoma; Parts of King, Pierce and
ThtmtorrCounties
Populatioi^gtowth during the 1980s earned Washington a
ninth House s « t in reapportionment, and the state's redistriaing
commission dre* the. new 9th right where the growth had been
greatest: in the silburbs and exurbs east and south of Seattle.
The new 9th \trings together an array of communities
without much sense W commonality, starting at the south end of
Seattle, going on down past Tacoma and then heading west to
Olympia, the state capital. The distria's "Main Street" is a 60mile stretch of Interstatik 5, where the crush of commuter and
commercial traffic sometimes keeps the road' jammed nearly all
day.
Most of the residents o^the 9th rely on their autos to get
them to work—in office tcVers in Seattle and Bellevue, in
factories and workshops of Boding or at the shipyards and docks
of Tacoma (where mammoth Cargoes of logs are loaded for
shipment).
Other sources of income and\iobs in the 9th include the
office and industrial complexes aipund Sea-Tac International
Airport, McChord Air Force Base Jnd the Army's Fort Lewis
(Pierce County). The military presenci that has long shaped the
Puget Sound region is inescapable in\the 9th. Veterans, aaive
military personnel and their families corvitute about one-fifth of
the distria population.
Some residents of the 9th make theiAliving off the land: At
the southern reaches of the distria, along^the Thurston County
border, forests and farms predominate.
Just over half the 9th's vote is cast in th\ district's northeastern end, a slice of King County that includes\the headquarters of
the timber giant Weyerhaeuser Co., in FederalVWay. The distria's
largest city (68,000 people), Federal Way recenmy incorporated to
get a handle on its growth.
But if King County contributes the majoriti of votes in the
9th, most of the distria's land area lies in PiercV and Thurston
counties. Here, many residents live in scattered sdbdivisions and
unincorporated areas where open space is plentiful and farm
animals are not uncommon. Some of these communities surround older, established towns such as Puyallup (home of the
Western Washington State Fairgrounds), while for others,
"downtown" consists of commercial strip developments and
suburban malls. One local political consultant called the 9th "an
entire distria with nothing at its heart but Chuck E. Cheeses."
The political charaaer of the 9th is just beginning to emerge.

Michigan
While the 4th is Michigan's second-largest distria in terms of
land mass (after the massive 1st), most of the distria's residents
live in the southern half. North of Midland, much of the terrain
is forested and sparsely populated. With few cities of size, most
of the vote is cast in the small towns and farming communities
that traditionally favor the GOP. Bill Clinton ran competitively
in the 4th in 1992, but he is an exception to recent Democratic
presidential nominees. In 1992, the GOP incumbent House
member won every county.
Midland, the site of one of the largest single chemical
complexes in the United States, is the 4th's population and
industrial center. There, on 1,900 acres, the Dow Chemical Co.
keeps its international headquarters and produces more than 500
produas. Between Dow Chemical and the Dow Coming Corp.,
there are more than 13,000 employees in the Midland area. Dow
Coming is the world's largest producer of silicone.
Accordingly, the Dow name is firmly stamped on Midland.
Residents can browse at the Grace A. Dow Memorial Library or
leam about the man who started it all at the Herbert H. Dow
Historical Museum. Their son, Alden, designed many of the
city's churches, homes, schools and business complexes. For
botanists, there is Dow Gardens.
The company also sets the tone for Midland County's
Republican politics, with GOP candidates tunning well. In 1992,
George Bush carried Midland County rather easily.
South of Midland, the distria is primarily agricultural. The
second-leading source of votes in the 4th is Saginaw County,
although the city of Saginaw belongs to the 5th. The city is
heavily Democratic and unionized, but the farmers to the south
and west generally favor Republicans.
Clinton County sports a fair number of Lansing commuters,
but they, along with farmers and small-town voters, favor
Republican candidates.
Owosso (Shiawassee County) and Alma (Gratiot County) are
more traditional, small manufaauring cities. Gratiot tilts Republican, but both produce some Democratic votes.
Tourism and recreation fuel the economy north of these

5th District
Northern Vest Coast — Parts of Alachua and Pasco
Counties; Hernando County
The 5th colleas all or parts of nine counties as it comes
around the "Big Bend" Gulf Coast from Dixie to Pasco
counties. It includes several distina regions.
About 57 percent of distria residents live in Hernando, Citrus
and western Pasco counties north of Tampa-St. Petersburg,
where retirees have spurred rapid growth along the coast. About
25 percent live in pans of Alachua County, which is noted
mainly for the presence of the University of Horida (35,000
students). Most of the remaining distria residents live in lightly
populated rural counties.
Democrats have wide registration leads in Alachua County
and most of the rural areas, while Republicans are more
competitive in the retirement areas. But except for Alachua, most
of the Democrats are conservative and can be swayed to vote for
Republicans at the top of the ticket. Democrat Bill Clinton won
most of the counties in the 5th in 1992, but with the exception of
Alachua County, his margins were quite small.
Western Pasco County, which was carved from the GOP-held
9th Distria in 1992 redistriaing, has retirees and military
veterans, as do Citrus and Hernando counties, which were
transferred from the 6th Distria. These retirees from the
Midwest and Northeast generally have modest incomes. They
include former blue-collar workers who retain allegiance to tht
United Auto Workers, which has a presence here, and to such
civic groups as Italian-American and Polish-American clubs.
The area has an abundance of recreational opportunities,
including gulf beaches, the Withlacoochee State Forest and
Weeki Wachee Spring. Manatees, which are endangered
mammals, frequent the Crystal River. The health-care industry is
a leading local employer, and there are two nuclear power plants.

�Former Democratic Rep. Peter H. Kostmayer held the seat
for all but two years from 1977-1992 with tenacious constituent
service and the votes of independents and Democrats from lower
Bucks County. His environmentalist credentials also had some
appeal among moderate Republicans. But even as Bill Clinton
aarrowly won the county in 1992—with less than 40 percent—
voters threw out their Democratic incumbent. That same year
>:he county backed GOP Sen. Arlen Specter for re-election.
Part of the reason for Kostmayer's upset was the seleaion of
i strong GOP nominee, one whose moderate brand of Republicanism had countywide appeal from the landed gentry and
farmers of Upper Bucks to the newly arrived independent voters.
These newcomers—who include business executives from New
Jersey and Manhattan—have fueled a two-decade population
boom that has altered some of the area's rural charm.
Places such as Newtown Township experienced exponential
growth in the 1980s; New Hope, a quaint artists' colony along
che Delaware River, has turned into a tourist mecca.
The lure was Bucks County's rich history and rolling
countryside. Established in 1682 as one of Pennsylvania's three
original counties, Bucks contains mansions such as Pennsbury
Manor, the Georgian-style mansion and plantation William Perm
built for himself and his second wife. Washington Crossing was
the site from which, on Christmas Day 1776, George Washingcon crossed the Delaware River to attack Hessian mercenaries in
Trenton. In the early 20th century. New York intelleauals and
prominent writers such as Dorothy Parker and Pearl S. Buck
found refuge in Bucks County.
Much of the countryside in upper Bucks remains largely
undeveloped and heavily Republican. Democrats can stay competitive in the county's midseaion in communities such as
Warminster and Doylestown.
Lower Bucks is more fertile ground for Democrats, with its
grinier ambiance and closer association with Philadelphia. Levit•rown s tightly spaced homes, built after World War n, attraaed
thousands of ethnic Democrats moving from the big city.
Democratic strength surged in the 1980s as lower Bucks
struggled with industrial problems typified by the massive layoffs
in the remaining work force at the USX (formerly U.S. Steel)
Fairless Works. But Republicans still hold a clear countywide
voter registration advantage.
As a whole, the 8th contains all of Bucks County and about
25,000 voters in Montgomery County. One offivedistrias that take
in some slice of Montgomery, the 8th has a portion of the county
chat includes Horsham and part of Lower Moreland Township.

8th District
Southwest — f 'amilton; Middletown
Butler Count' is the anchor of this southwestern Ohi
district, which las changed shape several times in recer.
redistrictings but always remained solidly Republican.
Butler contains more than half the district's population am
two medium-size( manufacturing centers along the Great Miam
River—Hamilton ipopulation 61,000) and Middletown (popula
tion 46,000). Steel, paper, automobile bodies, machine tools and ;
variety of other mktal products are made in the two cities.
Most of what few minorities there are in this district live in
the two cities; Hamilltm is 7 percent black and Middletown is 11
percent black. The reit of the district is about 1 percent black.
All other minorities mike up about 1 percent of the district.
But both Hamilton ind Middletown have lost population in
recent years. Most of Biitler County's 291,000 residents live not
in the two cities but in suburban communities and small towns
such as Oxford, the homeW Miami University's 16,000 students.
Population expansion ic Butler County's suburban territory,
just north of the Cincinnatiteeltway,has made the county one of
the state's fastest-growing, ind the new arrivals have escalated a
rightward trend in the locaft Republican Party.
Ronald Reagan carried Batler in 1980 with 62 percent of the
vote, and increased that to 71 percent in 1984. In 1988, George
Bush carried Butler with 69 percent of the vote, well above his
statewide average of 55 percent He beat Bill Clinton here by 19
points in 1992, winning 49 percent of the vote. In recent years the
county has elected some of \ the state's most conservative
Republican legislators.
i
The other half of the Sth'a residents live outside Butler
County in a string of fertile Corh Belt counties running north
along the Indiana border and east Joward Springfield. The land is
flat and the roads are straight. Once leaving the Miami Valley in
northern Butler, a motorist can driv^ north through the 8th along
Route 127 without more than an Occasional slight turn of the
steering wheel.
\
Corn and soybeans are major casmcrops in the rural counties.
Poultry and livestock also are mon^makers. In recent years,
Darke and Mercer counties have been the leading Ohio counties
in farm income.
Mercer, the southern half of which\ remains in the 8th, was
settled by German Catholics and is the only county in the district
with much of a Democratic heritage! But Mercer likes its
Democrats conservative. It has not backed the party's presidential candidate since 1968.
Shelby County and a bit of southweitern Auglaize County
were added to the 8th in the last redisricting. Shelby voted
heavily for Bush and Ross Perot in 1992, giving them 44 percent
and 29 percent of the vote, respectively, to Qinton s 26 percentPerot's best whole-county total in the distrtt.

�ominec. Four years later, Bush took 59 percent, 22 points higher
lan his state-vide average.
Three of (he nation's four top office furniture makers are
ased in western Michigan, and the fourth has a major plant in
ie region. Two of the companies—Herman Miller and Haworrh
ic—have hendquarters here.
The 2nd's limited Democratic strength is found north of
>ttawa and Allegan counties in and around the industrial city of
•luskegon. The city has one of western Michigan's heaviest
lanufacturing bases, including a number of primary metal
idustries (such as foundries), fabricated metal producers and
lachinery operations, all of which have been struggling.
The black inland precinas and the city's ethnic neighboroods turn out a strong Democratic vote, though the surroundig suburbs often offset their votes. Heavily forested Lake and
tanistee counties are also sources of Democratic votes, as is the
nail industml city of Cadillac (Wexford County).
Tourism, farming and food-processing are the economic
lainstays for the rest of the distria. Towns along the Lake
lichigan shoreline, such as Manistee, are heavily reliant on
.tirees, Chicago tourists and boaters who sail across the lake
ito their municipal marinas.
Cherries and asparagus are among the produas grown by
ical farms ind processed within the distria. Fremont, in
•ewaygo County, is home to the international headquarters of
lerber baby voods. Much of the fresh produce used by Gerber
grown within a 100-mile radius of Fremont.

3rd District
West Central — Grand Rapids
Politically, the Grand Rapids-based 3rd looks a lot like it,did
when Gerald R. Ford represented the area. Both the middle-class
residents of the city and the farmers and small-town denizens of
the surrounding counties make it a GOP stronghol^
Kent County is home to more than 85 peiCent of the
population, most of whom live in Grand Rapids, Michigan's
second-largest city. With its diversified economic base, the city
was one of the few outside the Sunbelt C emerge relatively
O
unscathed from the 1990-1991 recession.,
Part of the reason can be attributed uJ the variety of produas
made in Kent County. The 10 larMW employers count nine
different industries, including foofwear and leather produas,
fabricated metal produas, office furniture, avionics systems,
automotive stampings and children's apparel.
The furniture-making indyftry is one of Kent County's largest
employers. Unlike the furniture industry of North Carolina,
western Michigan's fujrfiture makers mostly produce office
furniture, much of it the metal variety.
Beginning with cHe 1970s invention of systems furniture, local
companies prospered and experienced record growth. That
slowed, however, by the the early 1990s as growth in office space
stagnated and' companies nationwide began to cut their whitecollar worl^ forces.
General Motors has a significant presence in Grand Rapids,
but the,'city has not felt the same pain that southeastern
Michigan has. Another major employer is the Amway Corp., a
home-/ and personal-care produas company whose Amway
Grand Hotel dominates the newly emerging skyline. The DeVos
family, which runs the company, is a leading financial supporter
of the state Republican Party.
Grand Rapids has a sizable blue-collar work force—and a
high number of black and Hispanic residents for western
Michigan—many of whom have moved to townships north and
south of the city. Still, it is not nearly enough to offset the GOP
wave from the rest of the city and county.
The local GOP has two wings. The "Dutch Wing" is more
conservative, made up of white-collar executives and the small
Christian college communities. The "Ford Wing" is a more
moderate brand of Republicanism, found mostly in the northeast. East Grand Rapids and Kentwood.
George Bush breezed in Kent County in 1992. Across the
distria, Bush won easily, carrying the 3rd with 47 percent.
Outside Kent, in Ionia County and part of Barry County, the
3rd is Republican and agriculture-oriented, though not fruitproducing like coastal weswfn Michigan. Ionia County has no
town or village even cloy to having 10,000 residents.
Flat, rural and Repul/ican Barry County is home to Hastings,
which boasts the distinction of being listed in a 1993 book as
one of America's 1(^0 best small towns.

is losing one of its longtime economic pillars with the closure of
Williams Air Force Base. The base, more than 50 years old, was
the training ground for more Air Force pilots than any other U.S.
base since World War 0.
The 6th Distria has the potential to be a politically
competitive distria. Democrats have a registration advantage of
about 4 percentage points over Republicans, but nearly 9 percent
of the distria's registered voters claim no major-party affiliation.
Democrats are strongest in Hagstaff, where more than 15 percent
of the residents are Hispanic, and in the northern part of the 6th,
where the population is concentrated in mining towns and
reservations.
The Navajos show a particular affinity for the Democratic
Party. In Apache County, where the Navajo influence is most
pronounced. Democrats outnumber Republicans by almost 4-1;
the Democrats' unsuccessful gubernatorial nominee won many
precinas by margins of 10-1 in 1990.
Districtwide in 1992, George Bush squeaked out a narrow
230-vote viaory over Bill Clinton, with Ross Perot finishing a
distant third.
Election Returns
Northeast — Flagstaff; Navajo
The newly created 6th rivals the western 3rd in size, and
American Indian reservations occupy much of its territory.
Nearly 22 percent of the distria's population—and about 18
percent of its voting age population—is Native American.
From the expansive Navajo reservation, which occupies all of
the northeastern comer of the state except for the Hopi
reservation, the distria runs southward through the San Carlos
and Fort Apache reservations, then takes in Greenlee County and
parts of Graham and Pinal counties. The eastern border of the
6th is the Arizona-New Mexico line; the western side of the
distria includes the cities of Gilbert and part of Mesa, in the
Phoenix suburbs, as well as the Gila reservation south of
Phoenix and the Salt River and Fort McDowell reservations
north of the city.
By design, rural voters have a substantial voice in this distria.
The federal court that drew the new congressional boundaries
excluded most of the Phoenix area (Maricopa County) from the
6th. The judges included the city of Flagstaff "to balance out the
interests of Maricopa County.''
With about 46,000 people, Flagstaff, the seat of Coconino
County, is the distria's largest city. Two interstate highways—
1-40 and 1-17—intersea in Hagstaff, making it the commercial
center o f northern Ari2ona. Thanks to its proximity to the Grand
Canyon, Flagstaff sees a lot of tourist traffic; other leading
industries in the city are lumbering and mining. Flagstaff also is
home to the Lowell Observatory, where astronomers in 1930
discoveied the planet Pluto.
Voters in East Mesa and Gilbert add a conservative flavor to
the centrist 6th. Many of the residents there work in the
numerous manufaauring companies in Mesa. Maricopa County

3rd District
Eastern Nassau County — Oyster Bay
Redistriaing changed little in the 3rd District s long tenure as
a GOP base. The lid's suburban population is more than 90
percent non-Hispanic white; it has more pockets of affluence
than of poverty. In addition, a Republican machine ha:; controlled Nassau County politics for decades. Its most prominent
alumnus, GOP Sen. Alfonse M. D'Amato, hails from Island Park
in the southwest part of the 3rd.
Yet the economic problems of the early 1990s hit home in the
3rd and loosened the GOP grip in 1992. The impaa of the
national recession on the 3rd's mainly white-coUar work, force
was ampUfied by the distria's dependence on a declining defense
industrial base; Grumman, a contraaor that has lost several large
Navy aircraft projects, has its headquarters and a produaion
facility in Bethpage.
The resulting dissatisfaaion with George Bush's economic
program in the 3rd was matched by anger toward local GOP
officials held largely responsible for a county budget gap and
burdensome property tax rates. As a result, Bush—who in 1988
defeated Democrat Michael S. Dukakis by more than 40,000
votes in the 3rd—lost to BiU Clinton in 1992 by 5,000 votes. In
the House race that year the Republican candidate wen by a
narrow plurality the open seat vacated by an 11-term Republican.
The 3rd (see map on page 502) reaches afingerinto northwest
Nassau County, taking in such well-off communities as Plandome Manor, Manhasset and North Hills. The district then
broadens to cover much of eastern Nassau Counry.
The Long Island Expressway (LIE) roughly bisects this area.
To the north is estate country in such communities as Brookville
and Old Westbury. The Sagamore Hill estate of President
Theodore Roosevelt is near Long Island Sound. The district's
campuses of the State University of New York, C.W. Post
CoUege and the New York Institute of Technology are in the
north part of the 3rd.
The bulk of the 3rd's people are in the ponions of
Hempstead Town and Oyster Bay south of the LIE. This is
mainly white-coUar suburbia, with many commuters to the
financial and corporate offices of Manhattan. Despite cutbacks.
Grumman is the largest employer in the 3rd, which also has the
headquarters of the Long Island Lighting Co. in HicksviUe.
The 3rd has just over half the residents of Levittown, the
development that sparked Long Island's suburban boom in the

Though tfte new 4th sprawls from central Iowa all the way
west to the Missouri River, its anchor is Des Moines (Polk
County), the region's commercial, financial and governmental
center and home
Iowa's influential statewide newspaper, the
DiS Moines R^/r/w.YJearly 60 percent of the 4th's voters live in
Polk County, a donVnance that is apt to increase if current
population trends connnue through the 1990s. Polk grew nearly
8 percent in the 1980s, though the state lost residents.
Des Moines emergedyairly unscathed from the farm and
manufaauring recessions that racked Iowa in the 1980s. The
relative prosperity helped sAwn the phrase "Golden Circle" to
describe the towns and subilrbs within a 50-mile radius of the
cky. The web of skywalks In downtown Des Moines, built
during a $1 billion developmelt spree during the 1980s, gives it a
gleam of success.
Des Moines managed to fldbrish in part because of its whitecollar employment base and its ^dependence from agriculture. It
is home to the state government and also is the nation's secondlargest insurance center. About (» insurance companies have
htadquarters or major offices in \he city, led by Principal
Financial Group. And Des Moines' rAle in the state's commerce
giew as economies crumbled in thA small towns that once
olfered medical care and other basic Mrvices.
Des Moines always has been moreUike Minneapolis than
Chicago or Milwaukee: It is predominantkr white, Protestant and
middle class. Polk County's Democratic tradition has strengthened in recent years. Des Moines' projberity has created a
comfortable middle class that is largely misling disaffeaed white
ethnics and go-go entrepreneurs—two grouM that voted Republican in other parts of the country during «ie 1980s.
Polk has been more reliably Democratic than most parts of
the country, supporting Walter F. Mondale m 1984, Michael S.
Dukakis in 1988 and Bill Clinton in 1992. The democratic House
incumbent as usual trounced his opponent here in 1992.
This voting pattern and the city's size minimJc the influence
in the 4th of the western city of Council Bluffs (tottawattamie
County), a GOP stronghold. Built against bluffsAhe city was
once a bustling crossroads for three westward trails\n the early
UO s and five railroads later met here. Today, mai» workers
tO
cross the Missouri River to work in Omaha in busineipes lured
by Nebraska's lower tax rates.
The 1980s farm crisis failed to shake the GOP grip on
Pottawattamie and the rural counties surrounding it. In 1992, the
iricumbent House Democrat managed to capture just a slight
edge in Pottawattamie, and it was also one of the few Iowa
counties to give George Bush a solid viaory in the 1992
presidential voting.
The farmers in Harrison and Shelby counties have been
relatively prosperous, thanks to fertile soil. To the south and east,

To the west, the 3rd takes in Lawrence and most of Douglas
County. The county's eastern portions along state Route 10 are
becoming increasingly suburban. University-centered Lawrence
has some liberal activists, but the outlying farm areas lean
Republican. Bush in 1988 carried Douglas, but with just 50
percent; the county swung to Clinton in 1992 by 46 percenr to 31
percent. Meyers carried Douglas narrowly.
At the district s southern end is Miami County, which is
lightly populated and has a Republican tilt, though that has been
tempered by some recent economic troubles. Clinton narrowly
won it in 1992.

South Centra/ — Wichita
The 4th takes in 11 whole counties (and a corner of Marion
Cbi>s{y) in south-central Kansas. But the distria is dominated by
KansasNJargest city, Wichita (Sedgwick County). Sedgwick
provides about two-thirds of the distria's population; Wichita
alone, with rflsre than 300,000 residents, makes up nearly half.
A center for military, commercial and general aviation aircraft
production, WichitaN^as a large number of blue-collar whites
with roots in Oklahoma, Texas and elsewhere in the South.
Blacks and Hispanics mafce up about 16 percent of Wichita's
population, a modest proportk^n by big-city standards but huge
compared with the rest of
The Democratic traditions of t N . district's southern whites
and the strong partisan affiliation o£ minority voters has
boosted centrist Democratic candidatesNor statewide office.
But with its overall conservative tone, njp 4th is not a
"Democratic'' district.
George Bush took 40 percent of the 4th's votVjn 1992, yet
easily defeated Bill Clinton, carrying all 11 counties. Otrnton was
second in Sedgwick, but ran third behind Ross Perot irVH but
three other counties.
Democrat Dan Glickman's close 1992 re-eleaion exposed
divide in the 4th. He carried the seven western counties
(including Sedgwick), most of which he had long represented.
But he lost the four easternmost counties in a mainly rural region
that was added to the 4th in 1992 redistriaing.
While many industrial cities struggled during the 1980s,
Wichita rode the wings of its aviation industry. The decade's big
growth in defense spending boosted Boeing's military aircraft
lines in Wichita; the national business boom aided Learjet,
Cessna and Beech, civilian plane-builders affiliated with larger
companies but based in Wichita.
The decline in defense spending is creating local concerns not
only about the aviation industry but also the future of McConnell Air Force Base, site of a B-l bomber fleet. The early 1990s
recession and the downward spiral of the nation's passenger
airlines have already rocked aviation's commercial side. Once

affluent parts of Ohio outside the Cleveland suburbs. But since
then, there have been severe economic problems. GM's large
Frigidaire division, Firestone Tire and Rubber and the McCall
Publishing Co. have all left. NCR remains, but has slashed its
work force.
The city boasts a large, thriving military industry, increasingly
rare in this era of base closings. Wright-Patterson Air Force Base,
northeast of the 3rd in the 7th's Greene County, is the nation's
largest military installation in terms of the number of people who
work here—16,000 military personnel and civilians.
The number of aerospace and advanced technology companies in the 3rd has exploded in the past 10 years, from fewer than
100 in 1982 to more than 800 in 1993- These companies now
employ about 25,000 people.
But the other job losses have forced many people out of the
area. Dayton's population declined 16 percent in the 1970s and 6
percent more in the 1980s, to 182,000, its lowest level in more
than 60 years.
The 3rd encompasses all of Montgomery County except for a
chip off the southwest corner ceded to the 8th District.
Surrounding the city are much-better-off suburbs. Dayton's per
capita income is only 60 percent of the rest of the district s; 34
percent of its family households are headed by women, compared with 13 percent in the rest of the district; 22 percent of its
families now live below the poverty level.
South of Dayton are such staunchly Republican white-collar
suburbs as Kettering, which is about one-third of Dayton's size
with 61,000 residents. Its residents are as white as their collars; 97
percent are white non-Hispanics and less than 1 percent are
black. Less than 3 percent of its families live in poverty.
The fast-growing townships north of Dayton, a scattering of
cities with 10,000 to 14,000 residents, are largely blue-collar
suburban. This is a swing-voting area.
Ronald Reagan and George Bush had little trouble taking the
old 3rd Distria with 56 percent of the vote in 1984 and 54
percent in 1988, but Bill Clinton managed to score a narrow
viaory in the redrawn 3rd in 1992, receiving 41 percent of the
vote to Bush's 40 percent.

?th Distria
1992
Danbury
Three of Conn ticut!s 10 largest cities are in the 5th—
Waterbury, Danbury id Meriden—but any Democratic tendenare counterbalanced by two dozen
cies in those urban
smaller towns whei Republican candidates usually run well
among middle-class 'Oters, and by a number of Fortune 500
companies whose headquarters employ a substantial white-collar
work force.
Registered Democrat outnumber Republicans almost 3-to-2 in
the 5th. But many of thi nominal Democrats—especially those in
the working-class Naugatuck Valley—feel the national party has
become too liberal. THat helps explain why a Democratic
presidential candidate has\not carried the 5th since 1968.
In Conneaicut s heatedihree-way 1990 gubernatorial eleaion,
Waterbury and Danbury voted for Republican John G. Rowland
(who had represented the 5tn since 1985); Meriden split between
Rowland and Lowell P. Wdicker Jr., who won eleaion as the
state's first independent govAnor.
In Waterbury, the 5th District's largest city with 109,000 people,
Democrats have had some trodhle retaining a dominant position
even in local politics. WaterbuiV had a Republican mayor from
1985 to 1991. Rep. Gary Franks, Norn in Waterbury, made enough
of a dent in Waterbury's usual Democratic margin to win two
House eleaions. In both of thosekontests Franks also benefited
from campaign visits by high-level\Republicans, who were eager
to help one of their party's few high-level black politicians. (Blacks
make up only 5 percent of the disqia's population.)
Franks gets his strongest eleaoraRsupport from a number of
smaller, wealthier towns in the distria, places filled with whitecollar business people who commute to corporate jobs in
Danbury and other venues closer to New York City.
Danbury, in Fairfield County, is hoipe to some of the 5th's
most affluent residents. The median fariily income in Danbury
tops $51,000, and its public school systeit is among the nation's
finest. Located in the media and cultural orbit of New York,
Danbury boasts several corporate headquarters, including Union
Carbide and Hughes Optical, the distria's two largest employers.
The city also draws visitors to the Danbury Fair Mali, New
England's largest shopping center.
But the wealth of Danbury and its surrbunding suburbs has
not spread to the distria's two other citiei.
Downtown Waterbury was sprucing up the mid-1980s, but
when New England fell into recession in the late 1980s, renewal
stalled as unemployment soared. Waterbury jonce was hailed as
the "brass capital of the world" and known^ for the watches it
made. But those industries are no more, and ihe city is searching
for ways to ftll the void. Two hospitals art the city's major
employers. Just to the east is Meriden. ©nee the region's
silversmithing capital, Meriden remains a mostly blue-collar
community, with many residents working for defense contraaors
located outside the distria.

7th District
South Central — Battle Creek; Jackson
When Bill Clinton carried the Republican 7th by 600 votes in
1992, it was less an indication of his popularity than a protest
vote against George Bush. This is a distria of conservative small
towns and agricultural communities, with a few midsize cities
thrown in for good measure. In 1990, GOP challenger John
Engler won every county in the 7th against Democratic incumbent Gov. James J. Blanchard. In 1992's open-seat House race.
Democrats did not even bother to put up a candidate.
Battle Creek, or "Cereal City," is the largest city in the 7th. It
is the home of "Tony the Tiger" of Frosted Flakes fame and to
the breakfast cereal plants that employ many of the city's
residents.
The Kellogg Co., headquartered in Battle Creek, is the top
individual employer and a prominent force in the city. The
federal government also has a heavy local presence; almost half
the federal employees work at a Veterans Administration
medical center.
Besides the money that Kellogg has poured into civic
improvements, the company also left its imprint on local
government. In the early 1980s, Kellogg told Battle Geek in no
uncertain terms to merge the city and Battle Geek Township
governments. Fearful that the company would move its headquarters, the city annexed the township, adding 21,000 residents
to its population.
With a fair amount of blue-collar Democrats, Battle Creek
often makes Calhoun County competitive for Democrats. Outside the city, the vote of corporate executives and outlying small
towns tilts Republican. In 1992, Clinton posted 44 petcent in
Calhoun County, his best showing in the distria.
About an hour's drive away on 1-94, the industtial city of
Jackson is another source of Democratic votes. The city is
smaller in population than Battle Geek, but as a whole, Jackson
is the most populous county wholly within the 7th.
. Layoffs at the tool-and-die and auto parts shops have caused
some pain in the city, but Bush was able to carry Jackson County
in 1992 on the strength of the oudying towns and farming areas.
In 1992 Bush drew some support from city-based Democrats—a socially conservative lot, with a tendency to pull the
lever for the GOP at the presidential level. Unlike Detroit's

13th District
Parts ofJersey City and Newark
Not far from the place that welcomed the tired, the poor and
the huddled masses yearning to be free rests Jersey City, a
modem-day melting pot. Ellis Island, the onetime processing
point for countless numbets of immigrants, and the Statue of
Liberty are appropriately situated a short ferry ride away from the
city's Liberty State Park. Although the subjea is of some
dispute, city boosters say the statue is within city limits.
Legentkry political boss Frank "I Am the Law" Hague's
machine controlled Hudson County politics from 1917 to the
late 1940s, oiled by the votes of those white, working-class
European immigrants. But now more than half the votes in
Jersey City come from minorities, many of whom came in a
second wave of immigration, primarily from Spanish-speaking
countries.
About half of Jersey City—the state's second-largest city—is
in the 13th, with the rest shared between the 9th and 10th
