From left are Don Bennett, Sam Barnes and Glenn HacUney. Also winning in the GOP House race are Tom Jensen, James Joiner and Dave Wood. (Staff photo) Republican party leaders say they'll back Hammond Republican Party State Chairman Jack Coghill said today he saw no problems with having a rather inactive Republican, Jay Hammond, as the party's gubernatorial standard bearer.

Hammond was the only leading GOP primary candidate who did not lake part in the Republican state convention in Sitka this year, explaining that living in Naknek means missing a lot of those kinds of functions. He was nominated in the primary election yesterday with an obviously large participation of Democratic "crossover" votes, even a i i Democratic governor Bill Egan in several Democratic strongholds. He defeated two active Republican a leaders, Walter Hickel and Keith Miller. He was also criticized hy U.S. Sen.

Ted Stevens. Alaska, and other GOP par leaders in tl closing iiours of the c.unj when the Hickel supporters fought back against Hammond's gains. This morning Hanlmond told the Daily News-Miner that he was very heartened by party leaders who contacted him last night. "All those lhat I contacted have Indicated all matters of support." Hammond said. "Interior Secretary Rogers Motron just led and offered his cong.aulatms and support." Hammond said Morion told him Hickel assured him that he would do anything he could to help his cause.

"01 course you don't get any rude partisan noises from thU quarter because I'm from a strongly Democratic district and got elected with Democratic votes for a lot of years," Hammond added. Qoghlll said he Is "concerned about the crossovers and completely opposed to the open primary." He said the open primary, where voters of any party can vote for any candidate, destroys the efforts of people who put a lot of work into the two-party system. Coghill added, however, that studies have shown that the effects of intentional crossovers by members of one party in order lo set up a more "favorable" candidate against their own are very slight. He said he is trying lo organize a state central committee meeting in Anchorage next month and he expects Hammond will attend to discuss the campaign in the general election. "1 don't see any problems." Coghi!) said.

"We will follow whal seems to be the clear choice of the eleclorate." He noted lhat Hammond is a a Senate i a a i a i i a i a polilics." year. When Son.
