Numbers.


Looking over these election numbers, a couple of things really struck me:

Tarek Al-Harari, despite seeming to have a some what strong presence and was incredibly well spoken and through in the debate only got 267 votes or 6.38%.
Raven Burnett: the aloof and poorly spoken freshmen received 538, 14.08% of the vote?
Wonder what happened there?

For most of the graduate seats, the winners were determined by 2-3 votes, not difference, but total. Whitney West will represent the CCAS-Graduates with a win of two votes, compared to the dozen or so that received just one. The same could be said for the graduate seats in ESIA, SEAS (the winner there had 3 votes), The Medical School (winners had 3 and 2, respectively), and College of Professional studies (4 votes for the victor there). Most likely the Graduate students have grown-up and realize the SA is dress-up. The same could not be said for the Law School Seats, which actually looked like they were competed for (winners had 40 and 38 votes)

Lamar Thorpe received one vote for CCAS graduate and two for the Graduate seat on MCGB, making him one vote away from more fake power for him to exploit.
