Democrats disagree about Jackson as VP WASHINGTON (AP) The 1988 campaign for the White House slows dramatically in coming weeks, with only a handful of primaries through the rest of May as the candidates gather strength for a final push into California.

Jesse Jackson won Tuesday's primary in the District of Columbia The front-runner will campaign in West Virginia and Nebraska the site of next week's contests for a day later this week before taking some time off in Boston. Not only has Dukakis surged nearly 600 delegates ahead Jackson, his only remaining rival, but the Massachusetts governor is also favored to win the lion's share of the remaining eight primaries, including the biggest prize of all California, with 314 Democratic delegates at stake.

That single state, with more delegates than the other remaining states combined, will host most of the campaigning for Jackson and Dukakis in the next five weeks. Each candidate plans at least 10 days there. Republican nominee-to-be George Bush will be campaigning across the country in the coming weeks, even though he already has enough delegates to win the nomination at the GOP National Convention in New Orleans in August. He will spend considerable time in California, and not to campaign against Pat Robertson, who technically remains in the race. Bush, like Dukakis, is looking to the general election campaign when California will once again be the biggest electoral prize of all on Nov.

Voters on Tuesday rubber- foreshadow defeat," Meshel added. "We have gone through that too many times. The more practical Democrats in this country have long since agreed that whoever feelings we hurt as individuals, the important thing to do is put an electable team together." Meshel predicted that there will be no rush to judgment by the Democratic party about choosing a vice presidential nominee. He also said Democratic and black leaders will want to weigh "the reality whether we like it or not" of possible racism that might be leveled against a Jackson vice presidential candidacy and weigh all of the pluses and minuses. Ruvolo said that even though Jackson is now far behind in the presidential race that continued Jackson-Dukakis debate is not hurting the party.

"If their pointing out the differences on issues, that's educational," Ruvolo said. "If it turns personal, then that's different at that point we ha ve a problem." Asked about Jackson as a possible vice presidential nominee, Ruvolo said: "I think that Jesse Jackson certainly deserves a great deal of consideration. And if he wants it, I think it would be very difficult for Mike Dukakis to deny it. "I'm not sure Jackson wants it," Ruvolo continued.

Michael Dukakis of Massachusetts winning a solid victory in Ohio's presidential primary over Jesse Jackson, the Democratic Party faces the increasingly ticklish question of whether Jackson, if he ultimately loses the nomination, should be offered second spot on the ticket. Ohio Democratic Party Chairman James Ruvolo and state Sen. Harry Meshel, D-Youngtown, the chairman of the Dukakis campaign in Ohio, differed on that issue in interviews with reporters Tuesday night. Ruvolo said he is not certain that Jackson wants to be vice president. But if Jackson seeks the job, Ruvolo said Jackson would be hard to turn down and would be an asset to the ticket.

Meshel, on the other hand, said even some black leaders are aware of latent racial "bias and resentment" in the country and are concerned that Jackson might hurt his own cause by accepting the vice presidential nomination. "There has to be electability," Meshel said. "And electability has to include all of the factors that come to play in a general election. "There are no thoughtful Democrats in this country that want to go into a general election with either a team or a platform that is going to the vote. "They believe in having compassion for other human beings like Julian did and equality for all people.

And they want to get a better justice system in Robeson County." Elections officials did not count the votes for Pierce, citing state law forbidding a local board of elections from counting or using votes for a deceased candidate in any way. But both candidates were listed on the ballots, and the votes were tabulated in each precinct. The Robeson County legislative delegation and Pierce's campaign committee have agreed to ask the Legislature to create another Superior Court judgeship for the county, and Gov. Jim Martin said he would appoint a minority, probably an Indian. The county's population of about 100,000 is 37 percent Indian, 37 percent white and 26 percent black.
