Last year before the ASWSU election Cougster predicted the winners and percentage of the vote for the presidential race. Our predictions turned out to be nearly spot on. So we are doing it again. Based purely on the facebook we predict Scheller/Fry-Pierce the winners.
Here is how we get that and the percentage of the vote:
| Presidential Tickets | Scheller/Fry-Pierce | Davis/Lambert | # of people in FB Group (as of 12.01 am 3-04-08)
| 529
| 270 + 22 = 292
| %of vote predicted based on total # of people in all groups (821)
| 64%
| 36% |
Last time we also looked at how many friends each candidate had but we can’t see how many friends Leslie Lambert has (if you know tell us) so will skip that for now. Grace Davis has 538 friends listed at WSU. Brandon Scheller has 521 and Adam Fry-pierce has 546. It is interesting how Davis has almost twice as many friends listed at WSU than members of the vote Davis/Lambert groups. The Fresh Four have 282 friends in their group but of course they were disqualified. We at Cougster have had our own experience with the election board and the judicial board. Let’s just say we were not fans of them in the past. We hope the Fresh Four will try again next year but if they want to win, they will need to settle on 2 people and get on the ballot. Overall we think this is a mediocre year and are not impressed with any of the tickets.
Now voting is super simple and easy to do so you should still vote despite our predictions, epecially if you are for Davis/Lambert. Heck scoring an upset and proving us wrong would make a great story….
