ASG voting ends with verdict due Saturday night

Polling for the Associated Student Government presidential election closed last night at 11:59 p.m.
The winners of the election will be announced tomorrow night at the Spring Dinner Dance. The dance goes from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m., with the ASG president-elect announced at 9:30 p.m.
There were three regular candidate tickets: Steven Page for president and Grace Eide for vice president, Brett Slaughter for president with Kyle Schwartz as his running mate and Jeremiah Whitfield for president and William Scott Powers as his vice president.
There were also two write-in candidate tickets: Laura Aguon for president with Eduardo Ortiz as her running mate and Nathan Doering for president and Jonathen Gates as his vice president.
Doering was Aguon’s original vice presidential running mate, however difference between the two of them during the week of the debates led Doering to drop out of the race only to reenter this week as a write-in. With Doering dropping out, Aguon sought Ortiz as her new running mate and they also became write-in candidates.
As of 8 a.m. yesterday, 712 ballots had been cast, as the Elections Committee was in the Main Mall encouraging students to vote, hoping to beat last year’s 1086 votes.
