Of all the candidates so far, one has really stuck out in my mind. Whether it’s for the picture on her poster, apparent slate like behaviour, or how the the ubcvotes website is incorrectly listed as “.com” on her poster, I think I’ve fallen in love. Lisa Anderson, possible future AUS General Officer, I, Gossip Guy, salute you. I also think you lead a glamourous life of wild nights and partying, and I want in. I imagine something like this…
Lazy Sunday. We’ve been called a gossip rag enough times that we may as well act like it.
Anyone sick of tsk-tsking the AUS for innumerable (okay, three) candidate mis-steps yet? We’re watching you, Mary Leong and Michael Haack, but HOLY JESUS Ryan “Not Too Fine to Fine” Trasolini, read the manual, son. Additionally, rumor & our inbox have it that one of the Presidential candidates has started offering cash money for VFM coverage. But of course, we’re all way too srs jrnalism bsns to take that deal, amirite?
Friday night also saw the kickoff of UBC Votes events, beginning with a well-attended concert at the Pit. Your Confidentialites were too busy being anonymous/sucking face to pay much attention, but luckily AUS Voting Committee Superstar Taylor L. brought along her camera. Hence, we’ve got these for you:
First, AUS presidential candidate Mike Silley.
imminent warning: lacks logo, date, time, approval
AMS Elections EA & CRO, also Second-Cutest Couple [#barf]
cause : effect
But by far the highlight of these photos was our first opportunity to cry APPARENT SLATE
quick, while he's facing away
CANOODLIN’!!1!!!11! OUT. RAGEOUS.
Gossip Guy here. Happy to see me? I know you are. I can practically see the smile on your face from wherever I’m currently sitting/stumbling.
Well, fellow Artsies… we have a lot of tough choices this year. We’ll have to pick Yes or No in four different races, one involving a Star Wars character (WIN). Three guys going for President, and two ladies and purple lightsaber-wielding Sammy J for VPX. Then a bunch of General Officers and AMS reps. But c’mon… let’s focus on what’s really important here (Not that they aren’t all important. Just some things take priority, k?). So yes… EL PRESIDENTE. How are we going to decide who to support this year? We’ll leave it to…

I now realize I spent all my bloody time making that stupid graphic, and didn’t write anything of substance. Make sure you read the contest at the end of the post, and actually enter, so I don’t end up crying alone tonight because I wasted so much time. [Kai sez: welcome to the Confidential Editorial board, GG. You’ll get used to it.]
We’ll do some in-depth analyses in the coming days – and be assured, we WILL penetrate into the inner recesses, unlike the EUS elections, which we know nothing about. Full candidate list and some useless links after the jump y’all. AND THE CONTEST.
We here at Sexy R Us Confidential have been looking for a third editor to spice things up, give us neck rubs when needed, and lighten our loads a bit so we don’t fail out of university.
We’re pleased to announce a VFM marriage of sorts, with the addition of our new editor, AMS Gossip Guy himself.
GG will post more on himself at a later date.
Hillson, we still love you.
On to some sad, sad news.
Unfortunately, glitter extremist and twittebrity Taylor will be leaving Confidential until constituency elections are over. She has joined forces with Chairman Naylor as part of the AUS Elections Committee and wicked awesome ubcvotes.ca team…it’s pretty hard to compete with that sexy Chairman, especially now with his dashing new smile. Oh, and his deep pockets.
Now on to some happy, happy news.
VFM IS BACK! Or, so says this tweet. We’re stoked to have you all voting for us again & again & again and promise to bring you some delicious content on everything scandalous in AUS, EUS, HKUS, and SUS elections!! Check our events page for all the events and remember to follow our Twitter.
