This looks like only first round results. That’s only 37%, needs to top 50% to win.

What Matt said. Also, what is a blank margin? :)

It appears the Stewards have spoken.

So, the Stewards control GUSA, which controls…

That’s really the end of the chain of command isn’t it?

Congratulations to the second society of stewards. I wonder what actions the group will decide to do next year. s/o to chief Fitz as well…leaving a lasting mark.

The rule of GUSA is mine! And no others!

@Denethor

Can Lord of the Rings/GUSA become a meme please?

@Mike and Greg

Congratulations! Illegitimi non carborundum and all that.

Also,

Authority is not given to you to deny the return of the King, STEWARD.

Here’s the breakdown of the tickets’ preferences. Note that it doesn’t track 100%, since some Joyce-Lovejoy voters are actually the 2nd choice of Factor-Pickens, but close enough without the data.

Factor-Pickens – 512 voters
33% (169) – Meaney-Laverriere
24.1% (125) – Joyce-Lovejoy
23% (118) – Feiman-Sims

Joyce-Lovejoy – 688 voters
52% (358) – Meaney-Lavierre
32.6% (224) – Feiman-Sims
15.4% (106) – (No Vote)

Note again that Joyce-Lovejoy voters include at least 125 Factor-Pickens, so this would be their third choice votes.

Congrats stewards!!!

What does this tell us? Winning GUSA requires a strong ground game. Mike and Greg not only worked as hard as the competition, but they had more people, in more places, working just as hard to spur vote turnout. Having an awesome name (Ace), newspaper endorsements (Charlie), or Basketball player (Jed) doesn’t mean all that much when your competition does the best job mobilizing voters.

Students care most about whoever tries to reach out and contact them…

That said: Congrats Mike and Greg, good show Ace and James, and sorry Charlie and Paige.

To Jed and Henry: Go back to doing what you do best – making jokes and playing basketball. We can’t repeat Cincy…

Whoops, to Factor-Pickens above I should add 100 of F-P’s voters, or 19.5%, only casts votes for Factor-Pickens and didn’t choose anyone else.

I am so proud of my minions.

We have successfully dismantled the Rebellion.

Job well done, Stewards.

…and now that we control GUSA, we can finally use those power crystals under Healy Hall to enslave all the minorities! Muahaha!!!

Manny out.

I enjoy that the Stewards stuff comes out every GUSA election I’ve been here. Anyone care to explain it all?

So passes Denethor, son of Ecthelion.

I told them you can’t mess with the status quo.

Stewards – noun [STOO-wards] – a convenient excuse to explain one’s favored candidate losing by a crushing vote margin.

YAWN… PREDICTABLE GUSA ELECTIONS HAVE BORED YOUR KING. BRING ME JESTERS FEIMAN AND SIMS IMMEDIATELY.

Do, like, Mike and Greg even crush kegs and slay box?

Who are the Stewards?

Calen and Jason’s endorsement is worth much more than the Voice’s and the Hoya’s put together. Says a lot about the two newspapers.

Heard \batman\ was also secretly running for the election this year as a write-in candidate. I wonder if he got more votes this year than last year.

Is Batman a Steward?
