fication for voters We're the, two most
important issues discussed tonight by

In both branches of the Assembly
the Republicans have an overwhelm-
ing majority and can muster on a
joint ballot 139 votes to 30. So pre-
ponderant is the Republican majority
in the Senate that the Democrats with
only three votes will be unable to de-
