begins, Nathanson said.
Piercy said the mayoral race is
sometimes more difficult and ex
pensive than state Legislature cam
paigns because she has to arrange
for her own campaign consultants
and advertising.
"I have to assemble every little
piece myself," she said.
Piercy said getting a message to
voters is expensive. Minimum
mailing or television campaigns
can cost about $30,000, she said.
City of Eugene Community Rela
tions Director Jan Bohman said the
amount candidates spend on a race
depends on how contested the seat is.
She added that the amount spent on a
race doesn't always indicate its success.
"The person who spends the most
money isn't necessarily the one who
is victorious," Bohman said.
Candidates are required to submit
their next financial reports by May 6.

Petkun and Ravassipour also will
need to make appointments to the
ASUO Programs Finance Commit
tee, Athletic Department Finance
Committee, EMU Board of Directors
and the ASUO Constitution Court,
Petkun said.
Ravassipour said this summer she
will begin "learning the ins and outs of
what I'm going to be doing."
"Eddy is going to help me kind of
sit down and tell me what he needed
to do and leam before he took office,"
Ravassipour said.
Since the pair's victory at the polls
Monday, Ravassipour has been con
centrating on school, she said. They
have yet to sit down and finalize their

big tasks for the summer, but she is
confident they will get started on the
major areas of their platform.
Petkun said he and Ravassipour
have met with Melton to begin for
mulating a summer plan.
"We talked a little bit about the vot
er (registration) that they're doing
right now to see if we can get me
plugged in as soon as possible,"
Petkun said. "Because that's some
thing that Mena and I are really excit
ed about and it's one of the major
planks in our platform."
This summer, Petkun and Ravas
sipour will plan the ASUO fall Street
Faire and start tackling what Petkun
calls the "sketchy scheduling penalty,"
or the absence of a full refund when
students drop courses late.
"At the same time, we would like stu
dents on campus when we tackle some
of these things," Petkun said. "It'll still
mostly be planning and strategizing."
