Going to the polls...

Let's the people have a say!

It’s Hall Election Day, and the Stedsmen are headed to the polls! Actually, the polls are coming to them as they can vote from the comfort of their via a Google invite, but that’s not important. What is important is that there are number of presidential tickets and candidates for several soon-to-be vacant Hall Government positions, namely president, senator, and student union board representative. After declaring their intentions last week, candidates outlined their platforms and positions at a special session of Tuesday’s Hall Government meeting. 

It’s a crowd field for president with several tickets running. Sophomore Cole Edwards is running for president with fellow sophomores, Brendan O'Donnell and Jack Barrett running with him as vice-presidents. Sophomore Matt Turk is also running for president with fellow sophomores, Will Connolly and Eddie Johnson, running with him as vice-presidents. Still, sophomore Walker Utley is seeking the presidency with freshmen Ben Merrick as his vice-president. Still YET, sophomores Sam Schaeffer and Devin Crudele are running for president and vice-president respectively. FINALLY, Eric Restic and Davis Lamb on for high office, running on a all athlete ticket.

For senate, freshman Jack usher is facing off again fellow freshman, Jack Olmanson

And for student union representative, it’s a another freshmen showdown with Matt Coffey, John Lucciola, and Chris Meissner all vying for the position.

On the election, soon-to-be lame president, Joe Trzaska, said, “St. Edward himself was a monarch, but St. Edward's Hall is a thriving democracy. Ironic! I'm very impressed by both the quality and quantity of tickets on the ballot this year."
