Election Watch: Like Bush v. Gore, but with dirtier politics, less Texans, and Duckweb instead of Diebold

  • According to Parker Howell on the ODE’s experiment in democracy, the race between Mann/Grace and Axelrod/Guzman is within 30 votes:

    ASUO Elections Board Coordinator Ryan Coussens announced less than one hour ago that only 30 votes separated the Jared Axelrod-Juliana Guzman and Todd Mann-Jontea Grace tickets for ASUO Executive in this week’s primary as of 2:30 p.m.

    And by “announced” he means “neglected to inform the Commentator.”

    But nevermind that. At this point the real question is who’s going to get out the Pioneer Cemetary vote.

    MECHA is a racist group, sorry for repeating myself but I just can’t get over the fact that a co-director of this outrageous group might be the vice-pres for the ASUO. .

    I can’t believe these assholes are announcing elections results! They must feel pretty fucking big being in the inner circle.

  3. Miles Rost Says:

    I seem to have this feeling that there’s an Oregon elections law violation right there.

    If anything, it’s quite unethical.

    “Mann-Grace T-shirts Banned”

    -is that legal?

  5. Miles Rost Says:

    I don’t think it is…but wait and see, the appeal has been filed and the Con Court is hearing it today.

  6. Miles Rost Says:

    Whoops, I and my sources were wrong…it’s the Dallas/Emily appeal, not the t-shirts.

    I told Ian from the Oregon Commentator that he was invited with us to pick up the primary election results, yet he declined to come. The only medium preset with the board, was the ODE. I also told Ian I would make him a copy of our response to the Constitution Court after Nick Hudson filed a grievance against the board but Ian neglected to pick it up until just several days ago. I’m sorry that I neglected to inform you Ian, I only announced it at the un-sponsored candidate debate in the EMU at around 2:30. Nick Wilbur was there reporting. Where were you Ian? Writing this propaganda?

    I don’t blog while I’m in class, actually.
