Dear Harold:
As one who grew up in Wyoming politics, I can assure you that
my old friend Democrat Kathy Karpan has a very good chance of
winning Al Simpson's Senate seat [three percent up in the last
poll]. Her victory could give us Democratic committee chairs in
the Senate next session.
A technicality, which could cost us this seat, is keeping up
to $400,000 out of Kathy Karpan's campaign. The technicality
involves Kathy's strong pro-choice position not meeting fully all
the criteria of women's groups. Kathy therefore gets nothing
directly from these groups.
I have asked, in the enclosed letter, some Democratic senators
who are not up for election to help bypass this dilemma. I asked
them to ask their women contributors to contribute directly to
Kathy's pivotal race or to themselves contribute to Kathy from
their own campaign fund.
As a friend I would like to ask you to do whatever you might
be able to do to also encourage them and our other campaign support
mechanisms to help, it could mean the difference between a
Democratic or a Republican Senate
Sincerely,
Enclosures
