Despite O’Connor Choice

Still, though, hrs political problem with women voters hasn ‘t been solved. It showed up on Election Day, and it is still there. Reagan fulfilled a campaign promise wher, he decided to nominate Arizona Appeals Court judge Sandra D. O’Connor to the Supreme Court. Now he is fulfilling another, with a drive for repeal of discriminat:ory state laws. He has appointed an aide, Judy Peachee, to work on that project and has written governors asking their help “to identify and correct state laws and regulations which discriminate on the basis of sex.” As campaigner and as president, Reagan has firmly opposed ratification of the Equal Rightti Amendment. His campaign pledges on the court appointment and the drive to erase discriminatory laws were offered aa. antidotes to criticism stemming from his position against the ERA. But on Eleeiion Day~ Reagan won overwhehning- ly among male vot.ers, narrowly among females. The difference of opinion persists.
