Western Carolinian fovember 6, 1980- ^Voice of the Students- -Vol. XLVI No. 12- The End Of An Era Has Come WASHINGTON (AP) - Ronald Reagan won the White House Tuesday night, sweeping past President Carter to restore Republican rule. Carter conceded, saying the people had spoken "and I accept that decision." The polls were still open in the West when Carter acknowledged that his presidency was finished - an hour after telephoning Reagan in Los Angeles to congratulate him on victory. So ended the longest campaign, in the makings of a landslide that belied the forecasts of the president and the pollsters that it would be close. It never was, from the moment the first polls closed. With 29 percent of the nation's precincts counted, Reagan was gaining 50 percent of the vote, Carter 43 percent, independent John B. Anderson 6 percent. In electoral votes, the competition that counted, it was a Reagan runaway. He had won or led for 384 electoral votes, a comfortable cushion past the 270 he needed. Carter had won or led for 74. "It is now apparent that the American people have chosen you as the next president." he wired Reagan, "I congratulate you." He promised to work for an orderly transition to the Republican administration that will take office on Jan. 20. Flanked by his wife and the high command of his America Goes Conservitive vanquished administration. Carter told downcast but applauding supporters at a Washington hotel: "I promised you four years ago that I would never lie to you, so 1 can't stand here tonight and say it doesn't hurt. The people of the United States have made their choice and of course 1 accept that decision, although not with the same enthusiasm I accepted it four years ago." In that 1976 election, Carter narrowly ousted Republican President Gerald R. Ford, lt took all night to settle that contest. This time. Carter had conceded the outcome and was offstage by 10 p.m. EST. The president-elect was at a private dinner with friends when Carter delivered his concession statement at what was supposed to have been a victory rally. Ah aide said Carter had telephoned him earlier, "conceded the election, wished him well, and offered his assistance during the transition." Anderson had also phoned Reagan his congratulations. Carter had known even as he east his own ballot that his White House days probably were numbered. Carter discussed the situation carls Tuesday night in a telephone call across the White House to the office of press secretary Jody Powell, who was heard to say, "Mr. President, you'd better wait a few minutes more." He waited about two hours. Carolinian Photo by Mark Haskell. These three ladies were the winners of the dress contest held at Buchanan Lobby Friday night. The occasion was the Halloween Costume Dance sponsored by Reynolds-Buchanan dorms last Friday. His concession statement had been prepared by early evening, for the Carter inner circle knew it was over. Pollster Patrick Caddell was said to have informed Carter early on election day that the tide was with Reagan and that he trailed by 7 to 10 points in his own final soundings. Democrats were on their way to retaining control of both lhc Senate and the House, but by somewhat narrowed margins. Republican Rep. Dan Quayle ousted three-term Sen. Birch Bayh of Indiana. In the presidential race, with about 26 percent of the ballots counted. Reagan had carried New York, Indiana, Kentuck, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Florida. Connecticut, New Jersey, South Carolina, Michigan. Delaware, Idaho, New Mexico, New Hampshire and Virginia; Carter had won only his native Georgia, West Virginia and Rhode Island. The Republican nominee led in Mississippi, Alabama, Iowa, Arkansas, Colorado, Maryland, Ohio, Illinois. Texas. Pennsylvania, Louisiana, Utah, Montana. Missouri. South Dakota and Wyoming. Thus Reagan was carving into Carter's Southern base, even as he gained the lead in hotly-contested swing states of the industrial Midwest. Carter led in Vermont, Massachusetts, Minnesota, the District of Columbia, Wisconsin, Maine, North Carolina and Tennessee. An Associated Press-NBC News survey of voters outside their polling places indicated Reagan ran strong even in traditionally Democratic areas. Those surveys also indicated that the Iranian Hostage issue was costing Carter votes. A majority of the voters said they disapproved of the way he had handled the year-long crisis - despite indications in th last two days of the campaign that the Americans might soon be freed. Carter's campaign manager. Robert Strauss, said the same thing in an ABC News interview. He said even the optimistic developments served mainly to remind people of their frustrations. Democrats were on the way to renewed control of the House, but by a narrowed margin. Rep. John Brademas of Indiana, the No. 3 man in the Democratic leadership, lost his scat to Republican John P. Hiler. Republicans had won or led for 8 Democratic House seats, a Democrat for one now held by a Republican. It would have taken an unreachable 59-seat gain to put the GOP in charge. In Senate competition. Republicans led for seven seals now held bv Democrats. East, Hendon Winners In NC by Don Womick Contributing Writer Republican challengers John East and Bill Hendon tripped up two Congressional opponents Tuesday with a little help from Ronald Reagan's coattails, but without Jackson County, which went solidly Democratic in every race. East, a political-science professor at East Carolina University, narrowly defeated U. S. Senator Robert Morgan, who was running for his second term in the Senate. An intensive media campaign portraying Morgan as "too liberal for North Carolina", as well as strong support from North Carolina's other Senator, Jesse Helms, boosted East ahead of Morgan. East also benefitted from the endorsement and backing of Moral Majority, the Christian political-action group headed by evangelist Jerry Falwell. Morgan led in the race until early Wednesday morning, when late returns pushed East's total ahead to stay, but by no more than a few hundred votes of more than 600.000. Eleventh District voters rejected Congressman Lamar Gudger's reelection bid more strongly in favor of Bill Hendon, the Republican challenger, who had never before run for elective office.
