    Way to go Mendy!!! You were so close.

    I voted for Fisch this afternoon after graduating. One can't help but wonder how the election would have turned out had it taken place during reading period or exams. Can he try again next year?

    Interesting that the absentee ballot operation was run entirely by Mendy's campaign with the help of the College Democrats volunteers. Where was P-Votes?

    P-Votes needs to be reformed, and that reform needs to start with ending the practice in which the this year's leadership hand-picks next year's leadership from within the incompetent organization.
