Now they wait
for the votes

HALIFAX (CP) — A Nova
Seotia provincial election
campaign seemingly
saturated with issues but
which failed to inspire the
electorale ended Monday
with the three party leaders
close to home in preparation
for voting today.

Much of the public apathy

during five weeks of camp- '

aiging was attributed to Pre-
mier Gerald Regan’s
election timing which in-
cluded the final weeks of the
prime August vacation
period and the early Sep-
tember return lo jobs and
studies. ‘

The issues of near-record
unemployment, high electric
power rates and inflation
dominated the campaign but
did not appear to altract the
attenlion nor create the
public debate that many had
anticipated. ;

This suited the Liberals

who campaigned on their -

eight-year record, promised
increased assistance to the
primary industries and
blamed economic ad-
versities on other govern-
mens.

They took some heat off
the power-rate issue even
before the campaign by
promising subsidies to all
classes of customers over
three vears to offsct in-
creases of 16 lo 18 per cent.
Coal-fired generation is ex-
pected to help stabilize rates
in the early 1980s.

The Conservatives
borrowed from last year’s
successful Manitoba cam-
paign of Conservalive
Premier Stirling Lyon and
that of Prince Edward Island
Conservative leader J.
Angus MacLean who almost
toppled the Liberals this
spring by hammering big
government and wasteful
spending.

The New Democrats, like
the Cunservalives, cam-
paigned on a promise of new
priorities for spending and’
greater assistance for small

business. The latter promise *

was a priority in all three

‘election platforms.

Pundits detected a strung
anl-government sentiment
throughout the campaign but
there was little indication
whether this would manifest
itself in votes for the Con- |
servatives - or New
Democrats. :

Voting al ihe end of last
week in advance polls was

described as light to
moderate, . .
‘The Liberals, seeing their

third consecutive victory.
since 1970, held 30 of the 46
seats in the last legislature
while the Conservalives bad

was one vacancy. —~

Six seats were added in re-
distribution in June, four in
the Halifax metropolitan
area, & Liberal stronghold in
the 1970 and 1974 elections,
and one each in Colchester
and Cape Breton counties.

If Regan’s government is
reelected to its third term he
will continue a 1-year Nova
Scotia tradition that .no
elected premier has ever
been defeated at the polls.
Premiers who have been
defeated since 1878 were
appointed to the leadership,
as was the case in recent .
years’ with Liberal premier
Henry Hicks and Cun-
servalive G.I. Smith.
