In Chesapeake, team tickets - backed by the city's party organizations - were the big spenders. For the six-man Republican ``Leadership Team,'' running on a growth control platform, the spending paid off with a big win: Two incumbents and two newcomers gained seats, to give the Republicans control of the City Council.
{REST} The Republican winners were Councilmen Arthur L. Dwyer, a shipyard employee; Peter P. Duda Jr., a television producer at the Christian Broadcasting Network; John de Triquet, a pediatrician professor at Eastern Virginia Medical School; and W. Joe Newman, a financial planner.
The five-member ``Chesapeake First'' team, backed by the city's leading Democrats, outstripped the Republicans in fund-raising. But only one member of the ticket, Vice Mayor John W. Butt, won a seat.
Councilman Alan P. Krasnoff was the only independent elected. He spent about $7,200, running on a record of growth control and a promise to pay close attention to the needs of citizens.
For the losers, the campaign spending buys experience, but not power. Linwood L. Nelms Jr., a bank vice president, was the biggest spender among those who didn't win a seat. He raised $45,000 and spent $31,000.
