1995 Chairman and
Vice Chairman Elected
   On December 15, 1994, the
Commission unanimously elected
Danny L. McDonald as FEC
Chairman and Lee Ann Elliott as
Vice Chairman. Mr. McDonald,
who was the 1994 Vice Chairman,
succeeds Trevor Potter as Chairman.
  Mr. McDonald has been a
Commissioner since 1981 and
served as the FEC Chairman in 1983
and 1989. He was reappointed by
President Reagan in 1987, and by
President Clinton in 1994.
   Before his original appointment,
he managed 10 regulatory divisions
as the general administrator of the
Oklahoma Corporation Commis-
sion. He previously served as
secretary of the Tulsa County
Election Board and as chief clerk of
the board. He was also a member of
the Advisory Panel to the FEC's
National Clearinghouse on Election
Administration.
   A native of Sand Springs, Okla-
homa, Mr. McDonald graduated
from Oklahoma State University
and attended the John F. Kennedy
School of Government at Harvard
University.
  Mrs. Elliott was first appointed to
the Commission in 1981 and
reappointed in 1987 by President
               (continued on page 2)


Message from Danny
McDonald, Chairman
   The Federal Election Commis-
sion is looking forward to another
busy year in this, our twentieth year
of operation.
   In 1994, the Commission estab-
lished a record of considerable
achievement. We placed on the
public record reports from federal
election campaigns showing an 18
percent increase in spending from
1992. Our newly-instituted prioritiza-
tion system enabled us to enforce the
most significant compliance matters
with unprecedented efficiency and
effectiveness, a trend we plan to
continue. The Commission also
approved the standardized National
Mail Voter Registration Form.
  The coming year promises to
present continued challenges and
demands. As we approach the tasks
of 1995, including revising Presi-
dential funding regulations, enhanc-
ing our information and enforcement
operations and hosting the annual
conference for the Council of Govern-
mental Ethics Laws, we welcome
your comments and suggestions.
   On a personal note, I want to ex-
tend special thanks to last year's chair-
man, Trevor Potter, for his outstanding
leadership during the past year.
