Beau and Lisa win. Good.

Beau - 53% (447)
Frank - 47% (405)

Lisa - 58% (426)
Kristin - 42% (311)

It's notable that Frank and Lisa's numbers jumped up a lot in the runoff after the endorsement by Z (and the myriad negative stuff said about Kristin). Oh well. The runoff was much more fair than the primary, even though someone screwed Beau and Kristin over by sending out that anonymous email that exaggerated the fault of Beau and Kristin, even if it was somewhat true, and ignores the parallel role of Frank. I guess it didn't hurt Beau too much.

Anyway, the winners were the two candidates for whom I voted. As I've said, I liked Beau from the start, and I know Lisa and think she's great. Frank was a fine candidate too, but I like Beau's position as a pseudo-outsider who nevertheless knows enough about the system to work it.

And for a whole other thread about all this stuff, see this thread on Auto Admit

Yes, nice sleuthing. Now find out why there were 115 more votes for president than for veep.

The VP candidates didn't campaign as hard.

Actually its quite simple, Evening students can't vote for Day VP. Therefore 115 evening students voted for President. Its funny who didn't know this...

Isn't that a really shitty percentage of evening students?

Methinks many Section 7 students had the elections pretty low on their priority list this week. Maybe it was just me though...

I want that debate video. I think comparing myself to a terrier and then barking has to be the high point of my law school career.
