       For your information:

     These are the results of a survey published by the Human Rights
Camapign Fund in February 1992.  For each candidate, one of three
answers was given -- a "thumbs up" (represented here as "Y"), a "thumbs
down" ("N") and a question mark ("?").

     For brevity, I've represented the candidates with these
abbreviations:
     A - Larry Agran
     C - Bill Clinton
     B - Jerry Brown
     H - Tom Harkin
     K - Bob Kerrey
     T - Paul Tsongas
