You may have talked to me during O-Week this year when I signed up. I remember Kerrod because his name was on a lot of the documents and stuff; I don't remember anyone else's name unfortunately haha.

Ah so you're a Libertarian too, that's pretty cool :). Can't say that I know too many like-minded people myself.

Oh I'm capable of being cold, callous and menacing when I want to be :).

Just ask my high school debating team :p.

I'm too cynical and jaded to vote for anyone. I'll vote for the person who is running and actually bothers to talk to people. Someone like Kyol. I would also vote for whoever could actually deliver on the manure that they shove down our throats when they speak to us.

Does anyone reckon that they should not be approach people who are eating I would like to get the USU or SRC to have like a perimeter around food courts or some shit. Pls I want to eat in peace, if you manage to stop me while I'm working down East Ave then sure but if I'm eating pls gtfo.

Also is it okay if I printed shirts that said 'no campaigners' and sold them?

That's the thing, a lot of them do run on infeasible things, just because of the sheer cost of them to implement isn't really possible(I did some conservative estimates on the "Free breakfast" things last year and they were just impossible to say that it was possible to do.)

Exactly why I'm running on a pro-business platform, on realistic policies to help ensure that capital continues to come into the union and for it to be a sustainable business.

"Hey, have you heard about the union board elections coming up? I'm campaigning for x, they're a close friend and I believe they'd do a great job for the union. They're not the stereotypical student hack, and they have some great policy ideas that totally haven't been promised in every other year."

Amelops, apparently my campaign manager got no one out on Monday and Friday when I was at work. They're out today though. Come grab a shirt off me if you want :)

Oh it's for my gender studies class. Absolutely riveting course.

I'm a bit concerned for this quiz though; I'm quite good at finding bases of vector spaces, but I'm struggling to explain its ramifications on socio-feminist theory and how it causes power imbalance in patriarchal capitalist societies.

really love that for every vote, the USU will donate $1 to headspace. Great initiative.


SO GO FORTH AND VOTE. Feel free to donkey vote it if you're not keen on anyone in particular.

Bec, if they're not keen on anybody they should vote for the candidate that loves beer. Duh. :p
