Mailed "To capsulize," she states, "The revenue sharing formula is designed to benefit most those communities which need the most help." The money is not without strings, however.

These areas are defined as ordinary and necessary mainte-nanct and operating expenditures for: public safety (including law enforcement, fire protection and buildng code enforcement); environmental protection (including sewage disposal, sanitation and pollution abatement); public transportation (including transit systems, streets and roads); health; recreation; libraries; social services for the poor and aged; and financial administration. Ordinary and necessary capital expenditures authorized by law are also included the list of accepted expenses. She stressed that education is not one of the areas that can be covered by the revenue sharing funds.

The municipalities are also not allowed to use the funds as their part of a matching grant for federally-supported projects. The revenue sharing bill was the result of a compromise between the House and Senate and is a five-year program.

The official results, as announced one-half hour after the polls closed, showed Miscikoski with a total vote of 1,040 to 1,039 for Bonetti. The City Clerk Robert Phalen confirmed late Monday night, however, that a Republican voted illegally. Phalen said, however, that the "official" results of the primary remain until challenged and Miscikoski is the "official" Democrat nominee for the 65th Assembly District seat.

Bonetti said he would "definitely" contest the election but could not say through what route he would do so. Joseph J.
