Low turnout seen in Lee and Ogle school election
Officials expect about 15 percent turnout in most precincts with slightly higher interest in Oregon and Mount Morris due to consolidation referendums. Voters will select school boards across multiple districts and decide county and district referendums, with turnout estimates rising to about 45 percent in the two towns tied to consolidation.

Bushes Coattails Shrink As Abortion Debate Roils Campaigns
Washington (UPI) President Bush, the GOP’s top hitter, faces a likely drop in his political impact as three Republican candidates Giuliani Courter and Coleman lag in polls ahead of Election Day. Democrats say Bush’s vetoes on publicly funded abortions hurt GOP fortunes while Republicans insist abortion remains a secondary issue and campaigns hinge on individual candidates.

Quake simulation planned on Nimitz Freeway in Oakland
Engineers from UC Berkeley and the state DOT plan a real‑world earthquake test on a one‑block section of the Cypress viaduct near its collapse site. The experiment, using hydraulic jacks and a heavy oscillating device, aims to reveal why the double deck failed in the 7.1 temblor and to assess potential collapse risks for a temporary replacement expressway.

Quayle Pleased by Prospects for 1992 Ticket
Vice President Dan Quayle said he was pleased but not surprised that President Bush would keep him on the 1992 Republican presidential ticket. Bush praised Quayle as doing an outstanding job while Sununu teased his own desire to stay in the job as well. Quayle stressed loyalty to Bush and confirmed no readiness to run in 1996, while signaling continued support for reform in the Soviet Union but noting ongoing expansionary moves in Central America and elsewhere.
