As we predicted Scheller/Fry-pierce won the ASWSU presidency/vice presidency. So how did our prediction of the percentage that each ticket would get turn out? Our prediction was somewhat close but not as spot on like we were last year. Here are the numbers:
| | 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%
| | Actual # of votes recieved (2014 total) and percentage of actual vote | 1456 = 72%
| 558 = 28%
|
Needless to say this year’s race wasn’t even close. It also had a very low turnout. Over 1100 less people voted this year than last year. The transit measure which was $15 fee for full time students and $7 for part-time students passed by 56%-44% the total votes being just a little more than the Pres/Vp race with 2047 votes cast, 1,140-907.
UPDATE: The grad students didn't pass the transit fee so it will not be implimented. They voted 205-251 against it.
