David LeDoux, newly-elected Associated Student Gov
ernment president, garnered 151 votes out of the 204 bal
lots cast in last week’s elections, according to ASG elec
tion officials.
In other returns, vice president-elect Bryan Fuentez re
ceived I5l votes and write-in candidate John Heller, also
running for president, received 36 votes. Heller probably
received an additional number of votes, but election rules
state that the write-in votes be counted officially for a name
even though it may, be misspelled.
“Every thing went fairly smooth," said Norm Bcrncy,
ASG advisor. "It would have been more enjoyable if more
participants had become involved but I think the staff did
its best to accommodate the write-in candidates.”
Student Lee Earl Elby, another write-in candidate for
president, accounted for seven votes.
Erica Strowbridgc, ASG election supervisor, said, “It
went really great” despite having troubles for the second
year in a row with the lock on the ballot box. School main
tenance had to come by and break the lock.
“I’m proud of everybody; I think everybody worked re
ally hard,” Strowbridgc said.
A total of 204 ballots were cast out of a student body of
5000 full-time students, a ratio not unusual for a two-year
college; it mirrors turnout at four-ycar institutions on a
state and national level, according to Bcrncy.
“I don’t think the students completely understand the
influence they can have with the administration,” Bcrncy
said. “We’ve got to tell people we can do the job for them.
"We need to be involved in all aspects of student life:
visit horticulture out at Clairmont, visit the auto shop and
visit the nursing classrooms. We need to educate students
on what the student vote can do.”

Clackamas student he is taking to the
VICA competition involving state gold
medal winners from all of the U.S.
“Competition is a little tougher at the
nationals,” Austen stated. “To be com
petitive the student has to be good and
steady with his work all the way
through. Ryan is like that, good and
steady while he works.”
Of the previous students Austen had
taught at Clackamas, he has taken to na

ways been interested in working on cars,”
Johnson said.
