# 1972 Democratic National Convention

The **1972 Democratic National Convention** was the presidential nominating convention of the Democratic Party for the 1972 presidential election. It was held at Miami Beach Convention Center in Miami Beach, Florida, also the host city of the Republican National Convention that year, on July 10–13, 1972. Lawrence F. O'Brien served as permanent chairman of the convention, while Yvonne Braithwaite Burke served as vice-chair, becoming the first African American and the first woman of color to hold that position. On the last day of the convention, Lawrence F. O'Brien departed and Burke was left to preside for about fourteen hours.

The convention nominated Senator George McGovern of South Dakota for president and Senator Thomas Eagleton of Missouri for vice president. Eagleton withdrew from the race just 19 days later after it was disclosed that he had previously undergone mental health treatment, including electroshock therapy, and he was replaced on the ballot by Sargent Shriver of Maryland, a Kennedy in-law.

The convention, which has been described as "a disastrous start to the general election campaign", was one of the most unusual—perhaps the most contentious in the history of the Democratic Party since 1924—with sessions beginning in the early evening and lasting until sunrise the next morning. Previously excluded political activists gained influence at the expense of elected officials and traditional core Democratic constituencies such as organized labor. A protracted vice presidential nominating process delayed McGovern's acceptance speech (which he considered "the best speech of his life") until 2:48 a.m.—after most television viewers had gone to bed.

## Delegate selection

The 1972 convention was significant as the first implementation of the reforms set by the Commission on Party Structure and Delegate Selection, which McGovern himself had chaired before deciding to run for president. After McGovern resigned from his position as chair, he was replaced as chair by U.S. Representative Donald Fraser, which gave the McGovern–Fraser Commission its name. The 28-member commission was established after the tumultuous 1968 convention.

The commission set guidelines ordering state parties to "adopt explicit written Party rules governing delegate selection" and implemented eight "procedural rules and safeguards", including the prohibition of proxy voting, the end of the unit rule (winner-take-all primaries) and related practices such as instructing delegations, a new quorum requirement of not less than 40% at all party committee meetings, the removal of all mandatory assessments of delegates and the cap of mandatory participation fees at $10. In addition, there were new rules ensuring that party meetings in non-rural areas were held on uniform dates, at uniform times, and in places of easy access and that adequate public notice of all party meetings concerned with delegate selection was posted. Among the most significant of the changes were new quotas mandating that certain percentages of delegates be women or members of minority groups.

As a result of the new rules, subjects that were previously deemed not fit for political debate, such as abortion and gay rights, now occupied the forefront of political discussion. The new rules for choosing and seating delegates created an unusual number of rules and credentials challenges. Many traditional Democratic groups such as organized labor and big-city political machines had small representation at the convention. Their supporters challenged the seating of relative political novices, but for the most part were turned back by the supporters of McGovern, who during the presidential primaries had amassed the most delegates to the convention by using a grassroots campaign that was powered by opposition to the Vietnam War. Many traditional Democratic leaders and politicians felt that McGovern's delegate count did not reflect the wishes of most Democratic voters. Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter helped to spearhead a "Stop McGovern" campaign, while at the same time trying to become McGovern's candidate for vice president. The stop-McGovern forces tried unsuccessfully to alter the delegate composition of the California delegation.

The Illinois primary required voters to select individual delegates, not presidential candidates. Most Illinois delegation members were uncommitted and were controlled or influenced by Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley, the leader of the Chicago political machine. The delegation was challenged by McGovern supporters arguing that the results of the primary did not create a diverse enough delegation in terms of women and minorities. The credentials committee, headed by Patricia Roberts Harris, rejected the entire elected delegation, including elected women and minorities, and seated an unelected delegation led by Chicago Alderman William Singer and Jesse Jackson, pledged to George McGovern.

The California primary was "winner-take-all", which was contrary to the delegate selection rules. So even though McGovern only won the California primary by a 5% electoral margin, he won all 271 of their delegates to the convention. The anti-McGovern group argued for a proportional distribution of the delegates, while the McGovern forces stressed that the rules for the delegate selection had been set and the Stop McGovern alliance was trying to change the rules after the game. The credentials committee ruled in favor of the anti-McGovern group prior to the convention, leaving McGovern short of a first-ballot majority. However, the committee was overruled by a floor vote on the first day of the convention and a unanimous McGovern delegation was seated.

McGovern recognized the mixed results of the changes that he made to the Democratic nominating convention, saying, "I opened the doors of the Democratic Party and 20 million people walked out".

The so-called "magic number", or number of delegates needed to secure the nomination, was 1,509.

## Platform

Formed after "divisive platform battles", the 1972 Democratic National Convention's platform has been characterized as "probably the most liberal one ever adopted by a major party in the United States". It advocated immediate withdrawal from Vietnam, amnesty for war resisters, the abolition of the draft, a guaranteed job for all Americans (it offered to "make the government the employer of last resort"), and a guaranteed family income well above the poverty line.

### Feminism

The Feminist Movement was a major influence on the Democratic platform of 1972, and on the entire convention in general. With renewed vigor, the Democrats reaffirmed their dedication to the Equal Rights Amendment, as did the Republicans.

There were disagreements within the Democrats of the National Women's Political Caucus (NWPC), and the Women's Movement in general, over how to best approach certain issues. At the convention Betty Friedan clashed with Gloria Steinem over the way NWPC women should approach certain issues, and whether or not they should make sure to throw all possible support behind Shirley Chisholm (both women were supporters of Chisholm's presidential campaign).

As the convention was occurring on Miami Beach, Gloria Steinem chose The Betsy Ross Hotel as headquarters for the National Organization for Women (NOW). Built in 1942, the hotel had been named after Betsy Ross, the Philadelphia seamstress who sewed American Flags.

McGovern ultimately excised the abortion issue from the party's platform; recent publications show McGovern was deeply conflicted on the issue. Actress and activist Shirley MacLaine, though privately supporting abortion rights, urged the delegates to vote against the plank. Gloria Steinem later wrote this description of the events:

> The consensus of the meeting of women delegates held by the caucus had been to fight for the minority plank on reproductive freedom; indeed our vote had supported the plank nine to one. So fight we did, with three women delegates speaking eloquently in its favor as a constitutional right. One male Right-to-Life zealot spoke against, and Shirley MacLaine also was an opposition speaker, on the grounds that this *was* a fundamental right but didn't belong in the platform. We made a good showing. Clearly we would have won if McGovern's forces had left their delegates uninstructed and thus able to vote their consciences.

Germaine Greer flatly contradicted Steinem's account. Having recently gained public notoriety for her feminist manifesto *The Female Eunuch* and sparring with Norman Mailer, Greer was commissioned to cover the convention for *Harper's Magazine*. Greer criticized Steinem's "controlled jubilation" that 38% of the delegates were women, ignoring that "many delegations had merely stacked themselves with token females...The McGovern machine had already pulled the rug out from under them".

Greer leveled her most searing critique on Steinem for her capitulation on abortion rights. Greer reported, "Jacqui Ceballos called from the crowd to demand abortion rights on the Democratic platform, but Bella \[Abzug\] and Gloria stared glassily out into the room", thus killing the abortion rights platform. Greer asks, "Why had Bella and Gloria not helped Jacqui to nail him on abortion? What reticence, what loserism had afflicted them?" The cover of *Harper's* that month read, "Womanlike, they did not want to get tough with their man, and so, womanlike, they got screwed".

### Gay rights

A coalition of gay rights groups at the convention "drew up a proposed platform provision that called for, among other things, repealing laws against homosexuals marrying". The provision was rejected by a vote of 54–34. Afterwards, however, two delegates, Jim Foster and Madeline Davis (the first openly lesbian delegate to a major national political convention), spoke publicly on its behalf.

### Desegregation

The platform championed busing under its "Education" plank, stating, "Transportation of students is another tool to accomplish desegregation".

### Welfare

In addition to a guaranteed job for all Americans (it offered to "make the government the employer of last resort") and a guaranteed family income above the poverty line, the McGovern platform championed the right of American welfare recipients to be represented by organizations resembling labor unions when dealing with welfare agencies.

The McGovern platform is often criticized as a "reformist coup" responsible in large part for the subsequent decline in American liberalism and chasing away the Democratic Party's "best politicians". It alienated the "working- and lower-middle class voters \[who\] saw \[the platform\] as threatening to traditional, deeply valued, if inequitable social arrangements"—so much so that one in three Democrats voted for Nixon, the Republican incumbent, in the presidential election in November. For example:

> Although the McGovern platform did not promise socialism, it did pledge to eliminate—through government guarantee and dicta—any manifestation of free enterprise that could potentially produce inequality or failure. It promised to use the tax system and federal law enforcement to redistribute income and wealth. And it said the Democrats would study whether corporations should be chartered as federal institutions.

### Right to be different

The Democrats also included "the right to be different" in their 1972 platform. According to the party, this right included the right to "maintain a cultural or ethnic heritage or lifestyle, without being forced into a compelled homogeneity".

## The balloting

### Delegate vote for presidential nomination

| Candidate | total Delegate vote | percentage |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **George McGovern** | 1,729 | 57.37% |
| Henry M. Jackson | 525 | 17.42% |
| George Wallace | 382 | 12.67% |
| Shirley Chisholm | 152 | 5.04% |
| Terry Sanford | 78 | 2.59% |
| Hubert Humphrey | 67 | 2.22% |
| Wilbur Mills | 34 | 1.13% |
| Edmund Muskie | 25 | 0.83% |
| Ted Kennedy | 13 | 0.43% |
| Wayne Hays | 5 | 0.17% |
| Eugene McCarthy | 2 | 0.07% |
| Ramsey Clark | 1 | 0.03% |
| Walter Mondale | 1 | 0.03% |

## Running mate

Most polls showed McGovern running well behind incumbent President Richard Nixon, except when McGovern was paired with Massachusetts Senator Ted Kennedy. McGovern and his campaign brain trust lobbied Kennedy heavily to accept the bid to be McGovern's running mate, but he continually refused their advances, and instead suggested U.S. Representative (and House Ways and Means Committee chairman) Wilbur Mills of Arkansas and Boston Mayor Kevin White. Offers were then made to Hubert Humphrey, Connecticut Senator Abraham Ribicoff, and Minnesota Senator Walter Mondale, all of whom turned it down.

McGovern and his campaign staff felt that a Kennedy-style figure was best to balance the ticket: a Catholic, big city-based leader with strong ties to organized labor and urban political machines. After McGovern informed Kennedy that he was seriously considering Kevin White (who had informed McGovern he was available), the Massachusetts delegation threatened to walk out of the convention if McGovern chose White, an Edmund Muskie supporter who had fought sharply with the McGovern slate during the primary. Immediately, White was dropped from consideration.

Finally, the vice presidential slot was offered to Senator Thomas Eagleton of Missouri, who was relatively unknown to many of the delegates.

The delegates insisted on nominating eight candidates for vice president, including Eagleton, Senator Mike Gravel of Alaska, former Massachusetts Governor Endicott Peabody, and Frances "Sissy" Farenthold of the Texas state house: Farenthold was the first serious female candidate for the Democratic vice president nomination since Lena Springs in 1924.

By the time the roll call finally began, many of the delegates were angry and wary after the protracted infighting, and combined with the last-day-of-school atmosphere of the proceedings, caused the vice-presidential balloting to become nothing short of a farce. The delegates cast ballots for a record 79 people, including many not involved in politics, as well as three deceased persons, Chinese leader Mao Zedong, and the fictional Archie Bunker.

As the vote went on, Farenthold began to attract an unexpected level of support, eventually leading to something of a grassroots campaign to nominate her over Eagleton. However, this ultimately proved too late and too disorganized to have any serious chance of denying Eagleton the nomination.

Eventually, Eagleton secured the nomination at 1:40 a.m. This delay forced the acceptance speeches of the candidates to be given well past the television prime time hours, and probably hurt the McGovern campaign by not creating the so-called "convention bounce".

Several days after the convention, it was revealed that Senator Eagleton had been hospitalized for depression and had electric shock treatment, and was also rumored to be more than a social drinker. McGovern stood behind his choice and stated that he was behind Senator Eagleton "1000 percent". The news media and many political pros, especially in the Democratic Party, lobbied hard for his removal from the ticket.

Eventually, McGovern felt compelled to accept Senator Eagleton's withdrawal from the ticket. The episode had placed McGovern in a "no-win" situation: if he kept Eagleton, the selection did not look good for the decision-making ability of the McGovern team, while if he removed Eagleton, he appeared to be weak and vacillating. Since this incident, front-running presidential candidates have developed short lists of potential running mates, and have meticulously performed background checks.

McGovern chose Sargent Shriver as his running mate a few weeks later: the McGovern-Shriver ticket went on to win electoral votes in only Massachusetts and D.C., and lost the election to incumbents Richard Nixon and Spiro Agnew by the largest percentage of the vote since 1936.

title: Anne Evans Mountain Home

abstract: Anne Evans Mountain Home is a cabin that was built near Evergreen, Colorado by Anne Evans on the Evans–Elbert Ranch with a view of the Rocky Mountains. It is located in at an elevation of about 8,200 feet the Upper Bear Creek watershed in eastern Clear Creek County, Colorado. Anne Evans chose a location on a hill with views of Mount Evans, named for her father in 1895 and renamed to Mount Blue Sky in 2023. Likely designed initially by Jock Spence, it was built in 1911. It is a "particularly distinguished examples of Colorado mountain cottage. It is built of vertical logs and the foundation was of rustic stone. It was built in a T-shape and was 3,200 square feet. There are four bedrooms, two sleeping porches, two bathrooms, and an entry hall on the upper floor. The lower floor is accessed by a wide staircase of peeled logs. The lower floor has a living room with a large stone fireplace, a kitchen, and servants' quarters. Evans hired Burnham Hoyt, a Denver architect, in 1911 to rebuild the roof with stone tiles and timbers. It retained its charm as a rustic Colorado mountain cottage. An Art Deco eagle motif was designed for the gable ends, fire screen and windows by Josephine Hurlburt, an artist who was also her friend. The living room fireplace with inlaid with a painting by Allen Tupper True. Evans decorated the cottage with Native American art, including rugs, pottery, and baskets. It was reported on in the Rocky Mountain News and in the June 1917 edition of House Beautiful magazine. It remained in the Evans family until 1990. Frederick and Jan Mayer, art collectors from Denver, purchased the house and restored it so that it looked very similar to its original appearance. The house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and is privately owned.

# Eighteenth federal electoral district of Veracruz

The **eighteenth federal electoral district of Veracruz** (*Distrito electoral federal 18 de Veracruz*) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 19 such districts in the state of Veracruz.

It elects one deputy to the lower house of Congress for each three-year legislative session by means of the first-past-the-post system. Votes cast in the district also count towards the calculation of proportional representation ("plurinominal") deputies elected from the third region.

The 18th district was created in 1978 and was first contested in the 1979 mid-term election.

## District territory

Veracruz lost a congressional district in the 2022 redistricting plan, which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 elections. The reconfigured 18th district covers 25 municipalities in the state's Mountains region:

The district's head town (*cabecera distrital*), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Zongolica.

With Indigenous and Afrodescendent inhabitants accounting for over 62% of its population, it is officially classified by the National Electoral Institute (INE) as an indigenous district.

## Previous districting schemes

2017–2022

Between 2017 and 2022, Veracruz was assigned 20 electoral districts. The 18th district comprised 26 municipalities: the same 25 as under the 2022 plan, plus Huiloapan de Cuauhtémoc, which the 2022 scheme assigned to the 15th district. Its head town was the city of Zongolica.

2005–2017

Veracruz's allocation of congressional seats fell to 21 in the 2005 redistricting process. Between 2005 and 2017 the 18th district had its head town at Zongolica and it comprised 24 municipalities in the same region as the later schemes: Acultzingo, Astacinga, Atlahuilco, Camerino Z. Mendoza, Coetzala, Cuichapa, Cuitláhuac, Huiloapan de Cuauhtémoc, Magdalena, Mixtla de Altamirano, Omealca, Rafael Delgado, Los Reyes, San Andrés Tenejapan, Soledad Atzompa, Tehuipango, Tequila, Texhuacan, Tezonapa, Tlaquilpa, Tlilapan, Xoxocotla, Yanga and Zongolica.

1996–2005

Under the 1996 districting plan, which assigned Veracruz 23 districts, the head town was moved to Zongolica.

1978–1996

The districting scheme in force from 1978 to 1996 was the result of the 1977 electoral reforms, which increased the number of single-member seats in the Chamber of Deputies from 196 to 300. Under that plan, Veracruz's seat allocation rose from 15 to 23. The newly created 18th district had its head town at Temapache in the state's northern Huasteca Baja region and it covered the municipalities of Álamo Temapache, Castillo de Teayo and Tihuatlán.

# Axford, Wiltshire

**Axford** is a small village in Ramsbury parish in the English county of Wiltshire. It lies on the north bank of the River Kennet, about 3 miles (4.8 km) south-west of Ramsbury village and the same distance east of Marlborough.

## History

Axford was one of seven Saxon settlements along the Kennet Valley in modern-day Wiltshire in the 5th and 6th centuries.

During the 15th and 16th centuries, Axford manor was centred on Priory Farm a short distance from the village itself. The majority of housing was built to the south of the main road through the village; the area to the north was developed during the late 18th and early 19th century.

St Michael's church was built in 1856 to designs of William White, as a chapel of ease to Holy Cross at Ramsbury.

A military camp was sited near Axford during the Second World War.

## Notable buildings

Axford has a Grade I listed building, Axford Farmhouse, which has medieval origins. Riverside House, Grade II\* listed, has a 16th-century wing, partly timber framed; the house was enlarged in the 17th century.

## Local government

Axford is in Ramsbury civil parish; the parish council styles itself as Ramsbury & Axford Parish Council. The second tier of local government is Wiltshire Council. The two councils are responsible for different aspects of local government.

## Amenities

Axford is close to the A4 road. Bus services are provided by the Swindon's Bus Company route 48 between Swindon and Marlborough.

The village pub, the Red Lion, closed in 2019.

# 1912 Holmfirth by-election

The **1912 Holmfirth by-election** was a Parliamentary by-election held on 20 June 1912. The constituency returned one Member of Parliament (MP) to the House of Commons of the United Kingdom, elected by the first past the post voting system.

## Vacancy and electoral history

The local Liberal MP Henry Wilson resigned from parliament at the age of 79. He had been MP here since the seat was created in 1885. At the last general election, he was returned unopposed. The last contested election was the previous election;

General election January 1910 Electorate 12,788
| Party | | Candidate | Votes | % | ±% |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | **Liberal** | **Henry Wilson** | **6,339** | **57.5** | **−14.4** |

| Turnout | | | 11,025 | 86.2 | +8.2 |
|  | Liberal **hold** | | Swing | -7.0 |  |

## Candidates

The Liberal candidate selected was 34-year-old Sydney Arnold. He had contested neighbouring Holderness for the Liberals at the last election. He had been educated at Manchester Grammar School and had been a Member of Manchester Stock Exchange since 1904. The Unionists re-selected 38-year-old Geoffrey Ellis from Shipley, West Yorkshire. Ellis was educated at Peterhouse, Cambridge. Since 1910 he worked for Beckett & Co., Bankers, of Leeds. Although he did not contest the December 1910 general election, he contested the previous general election in January 1910. The Labour Party selected 40-year-old William Lunn. He was educated at Rothwell Board School. He was a check-weighman who had started work in the pit at 12 years of age.

## Campaign

Polling Day was set for 20 June 1912, just 15 days after the resignation of the previous MP. The constituency contained a mixture of mining, agriculture and textile industries. Arnold was a committed supporter of a Land value tax which he featured in his campaign. David Lloyd George the Liberal Chancellor of the Exchequer sent Arnold a public message in which he said Britain needed to "recast our present absurd land system." Lunn was importantly backed by the Yorkshire Miners' Association which not only assured him of organised support but went some way to ensuring that much of the third of the electorate involved in mining, would support him at the ballot box.

## Result

The Liberal Party held the seat.

The percentage change in vote share is calculated from the last contested election in January 1910.

## Aftermath

A general election was due to take place by the end of 1915. By the autumn of 1914, the following candidates had been adopted to contest that election. Due to the outbreak of war, the election never took place.

title: Armadillidium atticum

text:
# Armadillidium atticum

***Armadillidium atticum*** is a European species of woodlouse endemic to Greece. It is a relatively small species and belongs to the so called "*Armadillidium insulanum* complex".

## Taxonomy

*Armadilliidum atticum* was originally described as a distinct species of *Armadillidium* based on specimens collected from the surroundings of Athens. It belongs to the "Armadillidiae" section of the genus, which is characterized by rib-like side edges of the forehead that never form a "frontal brim" along with the frontal shield, a frontal triangle with lateral edges that never reach the areas of the ocelli, relatively steeply-dropping epimera on all tergites and anterior lobes of the first pair of epimera that are usually either not curved upwards or with a slight hint of a bend. Additionally, the species is part of the "*Armadillidium insulanum* complex", a group of closely related, small sized pill bugs that occur in various Aegean Islands and the nearby Greek and Turkish coasts. Specifically, within this group, *Armadillidium atticum* is most closely related to *Armadillidium insulanum* sensu lato, from which it can safely been separated only by the more elongated first pleopod-exopodite of the male.

Historically, three subspecies of *Armadillidium atticum* have been described. However, their validity is disputed with various sources accepting none, some or all of them. The subspecies, and their diagnostic characters, are the following:

* ***Armadillidium atticum atticum*** **(Strouhal, 1929):** Being the nominate subspecies, it is characterized by the very long posterior lobe of the first pleopod-exopodite of the male and the wide and deep groove found in the middle of the head, immediately behind the frontal shield.
* ***Armadillidium atticum brevipes*** **(Strouhal, 1937):** This subspecies has the posterior lobe of the first pleopod-exopodite much shorter, being only about half as long as the anterior one.
* ***Armadillidium atticum cythnium*** **(Strouhal, 1937):** This subspecies holds an intermediate position between the other two, as it is characterized by a posterior lobe which is longer than that of *A. atticum brevipes*, but shorter than that of *A. atticum atticum*. It also has a much narrower and shallower head-groove than *A. atticum atticum*.

## Description

*Armadillidium atticum* is a small to medium sized species, reaching maximum dimensions of only about 13.5 x 5.8 mm. Its tergites are covered with granulations and the coloration of the body consists of a pale greyish-brown hue with lighter epimera. The frontal shield surpasses the anterior edge of the head, has a straight to curved upper margin and its lateral corners are pronounced. The head itself has a groove in the middle, immediately behind the frontal shield. The lobes of the secondary antennae are trapezoidal and the distal article of the flagellum is slightly longer than the first. The hind margins of the first pair of epimera are rounded. The telson is triangular, as wide as long and has straight sides and a rounded tip.

Concerning the sexual characters of the male, the first pereiopod has a weakly developed brush of short spines on the carpus and the seventh pereiopod a ventrally concave ischium, decorated with a longitudinal hair-field at the apical part. The first pleopod has an exopodite with a narrow, elongated posterior lobe and an endopodite with straight apex.

## Distribution

*Armadillidium atticum* is endemic to Central Greece and Cyclades. In particular, until now, the species has been found in the region of Attica on the mainland and the islands of Euboea, Salamis, Aegina and Kythnos in the Aegean Sea.

## Ecology

*Armadillidium atticum* is a relatively xerophilic species which can be found in various typical Mediterranean habitats, like maquis, phrygana and their intermediate morphs. Additionally, it is synanthropic and can frequently be found in croplands and in or around human settlements.

The transition to purpose-built racecars began in the early 1960s and occurred gradually over that decade. Changes made to the sport by the late 1960s brought an end to the "strictly stock" vehicles of the 1950s.

## Race report

A total distance of 500 laps was accomplished at this event; with Bobby Allison acquiring the last-place position due to stock car engine problems on lap 41. Stan Meserve would fall out with engine failure on lap 54. Driveshaft problems would end Paul Goldsmith's day on lap 60 while terminal vehicle damage would end Jerry Grant's day on lap 72. An accident would claim the vehicle of G.C. Spencer on lap 91 while an oil leak would take Roy Tyner out the race on lap 104.

Clyde Lynn's incredibly disappearing tail end of his vehicle eventually stalled his racing hopes on lap 445. While the first 100 laps of this race event were a David Pearson and Richard Petty show, it would be LeeRoy Yarbrough would compete against Pearson in the closing laps of this event. All 36 of the qualifying drivers were born in the United States of America. Henley Gray would become the lowest-finishing driver to actually complete the event; albeit more than 100 laps behind the lead-lap competitors.

David Pearson would best Richard Petty by a distance of three seconds after racing at each other's throats for more than three hours; Petty drove the last 25 laps of the race without any brakes. More than 19,000 ardent NASCAR followers would see a race marred by eleven caution flags for a duration of 81 laps. Richard Petty's qualifying speed of 88.582 miles per hour (142.559 km/h) would see him blaze through the field during solo qualifying runs. Cale Yarborough would spend some time as the leader of the race before an incident involving the back of his vehicle would end his day of racing on lap 237. Roy Trantham would make his introduction into the NASCAR Cup Series scene in this race while Serge Adams would exit stage left from NASCAR racing after the conclusion of this event. Doug Cooper also enjoyed his final NASCAR Grand National Series race at this event before retiring.

Individual race earnings ranged from the winner's share of $25,415 ($222,679 when adjusted for inflation) to the last-place finisher's portion of $500 ($4,381 when adjusted for inflation). NASCAR handed out a grand total of $86,285 to all the competitors who qualified for this racing event ($756,005 when adjusted for inflation).

At least ten notable crew chiefs were recorded as officially attending this race; including Ray Hicks, Jake Elder, Glen Wood, Junior Johnson and Banjo Matthews.

# 2000 Hartlepool Borough Council election

**Elections to Hartlepool Borough Council** in the ceremonial county of County Durham in England were held on 4 May 2000. One third of the council was up for election and the Labour Party lost overall control of the council to no overall control.

After the election, the composition of the council was:

## Campaign

15 seats were up for election in 2000 with Labour defending 13 seats that they had won in the 1996 election. Before the election six of those seats were seen as being vulnerable including Dyke House, Grange, Park and Seaton wards. The Labour Party however was seen as strongly favoured to maintain a majority on the council. A four per cent swing was required in order for the Labour Party to lose control of the council.

The Liberal Democrats and Conservative parties said that voters were unhappy with the Labour national government and that the election was a chance for voters to demonstrate this. Labour accused the other two parties of having done a deal to avoid opposing each other in some of the wards where Labour might be defeated. However the Conservatives said that this was "pure coincidence", and the Liberal Democrats said that there no deal between them before the election. The Conservative Party did not put up candidates in five wards, while the Liberal Democrats did not stand in Seaton and Throston wards.

Opponents accused council leader Russell Hart of concentrating on building up his own importance and during the campaign they circulated fake five pound notes with Hart's face on instead of the Queen. Meanwhile, Labour brought in a series of national figures to campaign for the party in the election including Members of Parliament (MPs) Hilary Armstrong, Joyce Quin, Alan Howarth and Member of the European Parliament Gordon Adam.

## Election result

The results saw Labour lose overall control of the council for the first time in 21 years. The nine gains made by the Liberal Democrats and Conservatives exceeded pre-election expectations. Defeated Labour councillors included Stephen Wallace, the election agent for local MP Peter Mandelson, former election agent Bernard Carr, mayor Ron Watts and longest serving councillor Bill Iseley, who had been a councillor for 39 years. Overall turnout in the election was 27%.

Conservative national party leader William Hague said that "The Hartlepool result shows that the Conservatives can fight and win in all areas of Britain", while the Liberal Democrats described the results as showing "that the people of Hartlepool have rejected Labour". However Labour blamed the results on an election deal between the Liberal Democrats and Conservatives.

Hartlepool Local Election Result 2000
| Party | | Seats | Gains | Losses | Net gain/loss | Seats % | Votes % | Votes | +/− |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | Liberal Democrats | 7 | 5 | 0 | +5 | 46.7 |  |  |  |
|  | Labour | 4 | 0 | 9 | -9 | 26.7 |  |  |  |
|  | Conservative | 4 | 4 | 0 | +4 | 26.7 |  |  |  |

## Aftermath

Following the election the Liberal Democrats and Conservatives began talks on an agreement to run the council between themselves. A special council meeting took place on 25 May and the two parties took control with Liberal Democrat Arthur Preece becoming the new council leader.

# Barcarena, Pará

**Barcarena** is a Brazilian municipality in the state of Pará adjacent the Tocantins River. It has a population of 127,027 and is part of the Belém metropolitan area. The city's economy relies largely on agriculture and bauxite. There are also facilities for pig iron nearby. They city and port is developing as a major transshipping port that takes goods for international export linked by rail from nearby inland ports, from all over Brazil, speeding up shipment and reducing time and costs as opposed to traditional megaports in the Southeast.

## History

The town was originally inhabited by the Aruá Indians. In 1709 Jesuits came.

On October 6, 2015, the livestock vessel "MV Haidar" capsized in the Vila do Conde port due to an unsuccessful turning maneuver. It had 4,900 live cattle and almost 700 metric tonnes of oil on board. 4,400 cattle drowned while locked in the ship's cargo area. About 500 animals could free themselves, but only about 100 survived the accident. Fuel and oil seeped from the wreck into the water and contaminated the Pará river and surrounding beaches, which deprived many local fisher families of their livelihood. Since the removal of the oil slick proved to be complicated, and no consensus regarding responsibility and suitable cleanup efforts could be reached, hundreds of carcasses rotted at the beach and inside the shipwreck for months – a huge burden on the fishery and tourism of the region. The competent Federal Ministry estimated the damage to the residents to be 71 million reais (about 21 million US$). By July 2016 nothing had been paid out yet.
