see, I've gone back and thought about it...
Quote : | "They've ignore he tried to have 1,200 tickets for Campout taken away 30 minutes before Campout started -- and got exposed when the entire email chain to University Administration ended up in the hands of Technician, complete with Bobby claiming Zach Adams supported him when he didn't." |
From reading the emails, its true that Mills wanted to reduce the amount of tickets...
Quote : | "I totally agree with you. Zach Adams and I warned the Committee about this decision and explained the necessity to only allow 2,500 students at camp out but they did not understand our reasoning. Hopefully everything works out.
Bobby Mills, 4:11pm" |
But he doesn't explicitly say that he wanted to eliminate 1,200 tickets from the students. That was Stafford, correct?
Quote : | "Bobby, in case we don't talk before then, I'll see you tonight at the Chef's Challenge. I've talked with Dick Christy again and based on your response, I think the best outcome is to tell SG that 1500 tickets will be allocated through campout and the remainder (approx 1400) will be distributed through the normal system. This will continue the agreement that we have used in past years. See you tonight.
Stafford, 4:37pm" |
Where's the part where he wanted to eliminate half of the tickets?
I didn't vote for him anyway with the bad press he's gotten that has already been mentioned in the thread, such as the tootsie rolls and other shenanigans, just want to see why you people are so adamant about him wanting to take away half of the campout tickets.3/25/2008 7:08:51 PM |

That part's not in the email, that was in his public statements after Stafford announced his decision (when Bobby told everyone from the people running Campout to the Technician staff that he supported Stafford's decision because he "had nothing to do with Campout")
It wasn't until his "nothing to do with Campout" argument got exposed via that email -- and Zach Adams found out his name was dropped in reference to it -- that Bobby tried an about-face3/25/2008 7:19:47 PM |

I'll take as many votes as I can get

i thought the reason we paid $1,800 was so they could get a very accurate unofficial winner, then have the meetings to make it official... 3/25/2008 11:04:37 PM |
TGD All American 8912 Posts user info edit post |
the tech admins still have to map write-in votes to candidates, take out hte ones like Mickey Mouse, etc -- that's the part that takes awhile
the "unofficial" winner will be known as of 1-2am, and there's 99.9% certainty they'll be the "official" winner too 3/25/2008 11:05:59 PM |

TGD All American 8912 Posts user info edit post |
if it's written in as "jackleg" it'll get lumped in with the "Illegal/Fictitious Votes" -- but we should still be able to see how many votes he gets 3/25/2008 11:23:16 PM |

yeah. but i had a pretty serious write in thing going on. i got close to 5% of the total vote. i mean thats only a couple hundred but still. 3/25/2008 11:26:31 PM |

It'll probably be another hour or so before results are out. 7,024 total votes (only the 2nd time in NCSU history we've broken 7,000 -- 1st time was with the Pirate Captain), they're about 1/2 done on mapping write-ins 3/26/2008 12:20:52 AM |
jessiejepp All American 2732 Posts user info edit post |
I really dont understand why they do that write-in thing. If someone had wanted to run, they should have filed in time to be on the ballot. And if someone dropped out leaving a position uncontested, then so be it.
Write-ins take time and usually the people that advocate the use of them are the people who just want to snag places from those competition-free runners because they have some sort of hatred towards 'em.
just my view. 3/26/2008 12:29:19 AM |
jackleg All American 170957 Posts user info edit post |
yeah you werent in school when i ran probably.
my whole point in running as a write in was because i wasn't allowed to be on the ballot because i had a disciplinary infraction on my record, and that excluded me
2002? GB16 i think we were pushing for 3/26/2008 12:31:06 AM |
