GA, Freshman class elections close today

October 13

AU students headed to the polls to vote for their representatives to the General Assembly and Class of 2007 Council yesterday and continue to vote today. Unlike last year, sheets of paper and pens greet them instead of computers offering online voting. "I've done paper ballots before," said Polson Kanneth, chair of the Student Confederation's Board of Elections. "It's accountable. When someone wants to check the count, they are there. And there's a hard copy." The election, which includes votes for open seats on the GA as well as the new freshman class council, shifted away from the computer system after problems in the past. "Some people were able to vote for themselves five times," Kanneth said, "while others weren't able to vote for themselves once."

About the recall ...

By Michael Lewis | October 13

Guest columnist Michael Lewis believes that corruption in the United States can be seen everywhere. From illegal accounting practices to people finding loopholes to avoid paying taxes, we as a society always try to get around doing the right thing and avoiding the consequences of our bad decisions. Some politicians have made a career out of lying to their constituents to please the needs of their friends or for personal gain.
