Elections Commissioner True Rains changed how SG campaigned and promoted elections for Fall 2014. "I decided that I wanted to have 850 informed voters rather than 2,000 voters who clicked because they wanted a free slice of pizza,” Rains said.
After a second day of polling, the incumbent Red Party still leads the elections, but by slightly smaller margins, with 53.3 percent of votes going to the Red Party and 41.5 percent going to the Yellow Party.
The Red Party leads the Yellow Party 59.8 percent to 37.1 percent, according to exit polls conducted on the first day of fall Student Government Senate elections.
The remaining 3.1 percent of students voted for non-party affiliated candidates.
Initiatives that the Red Party wants to pursue include a universal scantron on campus and an expansion of the amount of free prints a student can use during a semester.
The Yellow Party candidates running in the upcoming Student Government Senate election are hoping to enhance diversity within SG and improve communication between it and the students.
