“Students are bombarded for three weeks with elections. It turns
them offtovotingand is hard to combat.”
—Sean Ritchie, ASUO Executive candidate
Jonathan House Emerald
Newly elected ASUO Executives, Rachel Pilliod (center) and Ben Buzbee (right), congratulate Pilliod’s roommate Megan Hughes
on Friday evening for winning a seat on the Student Recreation and Fitness Advisory Board.
Elections
continued from page 1
in part on a lack of ballot measures
and student confusion that they
had to vote in both a primary and a
general election.
Hight said ballot measures ask
ing for money attract more voters,
and she heard of some students
who thought the primary vote
sealed the election.
But Hight lauded her board for
their efforts this year to spread the
word about elections early and often.
“We started recruiting early, at
the end of last term,” she said.
The elections board called its
voter education seminars and can
didates fairs in the residence
halls, greek houses and student
unions a success, and also gave
credit to the diverse group of can
didates running in the primary
and general elections.
Grievances have halted the last
three ASUO elections, sometimes
multiple times, forcing the ASUO
Constitution Court to untie the po
litical knots before voting could re
sume. This year, the court dis
missed the only grievance 20
minutes after voting ended Friday.
The court dismissed the case on a
technicality because it was based on
Oregon law only, and no ASUO rule
was referenced. The justices wrote
in the decision that the court can
decide only on “questions arising
under the ASUO Constitution.”
Commentator publisher Bret Jacob
son filed the grievance after elections
board members refused to let media
representatives witness last week’s
primary election vote tally. Jacobson,
in his grievance, argued that the count
fell under Oregon’s Public Meetings
Law and asked for a recount and the
removal of the elections board.
Even Hight was dismayed that
the court still didn’t clarify the is
sue of media presence during bal
lot tallies.
