Thank you so much for all the background information about the UBC campus that you have provided!
I have learnt much more information about the inner-working of UBC than I would have ever imagined. These three weeks are truly an unforgettable learning experience.

Seconding the whole being drunk thing.
Hooray for democracy!

On the recount thing: I understand they counted the Board ballots a few times just to be sure, so it should be pretty robust.

Underground came in 1st place? I can honestly say I did not hear that name once during the entire election season.

A little disgusted as I am that EI didn’t win – you did provide the best coverage of the election. Thanks for the hard work these past couple of weeks. Ill do my best not to disapoint.

I know I probably slurred it incessantly last night but your publication was by far the most informative and well thought out. I really apprecaited your coverage. And reallllly if more students were as informed as you are, or even as I’ve become in the last few weeks (through pretty minimal effort actually) they would be better for it. On that note, I’m hung over and need hashbrowns

What about the election results for other positions like Student Legal Fund?

I think it’d be naive to hope that a tight circle of friends and acquaintances would outvote the largest faculty on campus. Plus the first person perspective of EI isn’t as entertaining as a satirical look on the whole election.

Oker I couldn’t agree more. Plus the Underground was very well done.
For the record neither Tim nor I ever thought we would place first in this contest, nor was it our goal.

Anyone else see an interesting pattern in the voting?
Jaspreet came in first with a ~500 vote margin…
Jeff came in first for Bog with ~500 vote lead
VP finance was ~600 votes
VP Admin was ~500 votes
Odd that so many positions had aproximately a 500 vote difference…

Incidentally, I think Tariq’s actual vote total differs from what’s up there by “1” (i.e. it’s 1430, not 430).

Ya, it’s an authentic error from my inebriation.
That I will leave up.

Pfff! So much for the “new media” revolution. When campus readers want relevant journalism, they will always reach for the printed page–for now, at least.
