Counci
ilgets transfusion of new blood in all city districts
All three incumbent city council mem
bers up for election were defeated Tues
day in Lincoln's first district race.
According to Eric Youngberg, winner
in the Northwest District which includes
UNL City and East Campuses, the results
were not an upset.
"My race wasn't an upset because he
(Steve Cook) never attended rallies,
knocked on doors, and didn't really want
to run, said Youngbergr 28. "People
understood I would be their voice for the
first time on the council since I projected
an image as a boy from the northside."
Youngberg said he was happy that the
other challengers won since they repre
sented a position like his, one of neigh
borhood involvement and representation.
"The past council has done a lot of
damage and has lot the public's confi-

dence," Youngberg said. "We are going to
have to bend over backwards to restore
that lost confidence.
Cook, an eight-year incumbent who
beat Youngberg in the April primary by
only 19 votes, said he wasn't bitter about
the defeat and that he had almost decided
not to run this year anyway.
"Youngberg -cant match my record of
20 years (city government) experience,
Cook said after the election. "Maybe I've
been around too long and I can accept
that.
Cook said that Youngberg's campaign
played a large part in the results.
UI think the fact that he (Youngberg)
was willing to say anything to get the vote
won him the election," Cook-said. "I cant
do that.
Youngberg said he was happy that
Helen Boosalis won and that "with a new
strong majority council, there wont be
any more fighting between the mayor and
council.
Agreeing with Youngberg about better
mayor-council relations with the defeat
of three incumbents was councilman Bob
Jeambey
"It couldn't have happened to a nicer
bunch," said Jeambey referring to incum
bents Cook, Bob Sikyta, and Arlyss Brown.
"The council has been arrogant and has
wasted their time on many issues," he
added.
Councilman John Robinson agreed
there would be less friction between the
mayor and new council that will take
office May 14.
"Instead of pouring cement, it will
mean the preservation of neighborhoods "
Robinson said after the election.
Besides coming out for more neighbor
hood involvement and representation in
city government, Youngberg said he would
also like to improve student relations in the
community.
His campaign was based on strong sup
port of community schools and he is
against the Northeast Radial while Cook
favored it.
Youngberg also favors an open-ended
policy on the number of liquor licenses in
Lincoln, emphasizing instead the quality
of the businesses allowed to serve liquor.
Cook has said that the council has tried
to maintain the present level of liquor es
tablishments, although the council has con
stantly been searching for "creative and in
novative measures for the license policy.
Besides the 3,288 to 2,438 vote victory
by Youngberg in the Northwest District,
other council results were :
Past Council Chairman Bob Sikyta was
defeated by Donna Frohardt in the south
east district by 7,061 to 6,647. Frohardt,
who received SI percent of the vote,
resigned recently as a customer service rep
resentative for the Lincoln Electric System.
In the Southwest District, incumbent
Arlyss Brown was defeated by Mike Stein
man by a 5,517 to 4,586 margin. Steinman
is a political science professor at UNL.
Winner of the Northeast District was
Margrethe Ahlschwede over Jim Barry
by a 5,519 to 3,041 margin. Ahlschwede,
who received the largest district victory
with 64 percent of the votes, is a
homemaker.
