IT'S FINALLY THE LAST SHOWDOWN OF THE ELECTION!
Who among these dedicated group of people, will be :THE NEXT STUDENT ASSOCIATION OFFICERS?!
On 31st March 2009, we dispatched our team of reporters to cover about the SA officers elections that's
been going on about 2 weeks already.
Today marks the last day of the election, which majority of the students could be seen voting on the booth near the SA Building entrance.
To hear some opinions about the election, our reporters interviewed some of the students.
This is what they had in mind :
Respondent #1 : Umesi
Us : Okay.First of all, what's your name man?
Umesi (M) : Umesi. I'm in mechanical engineering Year 2.
Us : So are there any of your friends in the election?
M : Yes there are. In fact, all of them are my friends.
Us : I see.So, are you just gonna vote your friend cause, they are your friend?
M : I don't think so. Well, since most of them are my friends, I am voting my friends. But I do not vote them out of our friendship, but the qualities that I had observed in every each of them.
Us : Good answer. Ok, next, do you think that popularity is an important factor in winning the election?
M : It depends on WHAT THEIR POPULARITY IS BASED ON. Some of them are popular because of their leadership, some 'cause of their athleticity and sportsmanship and others.
Us : Nicely said. OK man, thanks a lot for your time.
M : No problem. See you guys again.

J: Well, I'm one of the officers who's in charge of registering students before they vote.
Us : I see. Does the voting session gets hectic handling all of the students?
J : Yes it does. But compared to last year, it's more manageable since we're using a computerised system to register the students.
Us : Next, when is it the peak time of the voting session?
J: Usually the lunch time period, around 1-2 pm.
Us : OK. John, last question. What are your message/hopes for the candidates of the election?
J: For the candidates, I wish them all the best. When you guys got elected, do your best in fulfilling your duties.

Umesi cares about the election. You can feel his passion during the interview.
April 2, 2009 at 12:11 AM
hahahaha
btw, the election was not so bad
y don't we change the way of that election??
pick one day, where all students have to queue and vote. compulsory 2 all students 2 vote. the more the merrier!!!!and that might be cool...plus, staff should also vote for the candidates. this proves that the candidates should show their positive behaviors and attitudes not only among the students, but with staffs also. it shows that they are great leaders!!!!!!!
chill!!keep smiling...lalalala
April 2, 2009 at 1:10 AM
you got the point
April 2, 2009 at 1:21 AM
As the name of the association itself. STUDENT'S Association. So, why bother for the staff to take part in voting too?? Like the SA executives can satisfied the staff needs? What do they need? What are they for?
April 2, 2009 at 6:35 AM
Umesi himself campaigned for Saarshad who is "incapable" for the post. We caught him red handed but we could not take it to the SA. He is bullshitting here and you are believing it. Holly crap.
April 2, 2009 at 2:14 PM
Well, I still don't get your point Anonymous. Is this interview is for real?
April 2, 2009 at 8:55 PM
I am saying that Umesi is bullshitting. He showed Saarshad's name and asked students to vote for him. That was illegal according to the election constitution; because, he was doing it on the election day. Most students know that Saarshad is a big zero. But, this Umesi fooled many students like how he is bullshitting here and made them vote for him. You can ask the current SA executives about the newly elected person. You can also ask students that work closely with SA and female students in UNMC
April 3, 2009 at 1:01 AM
haahhahaha sorry man
i know that it is only for students
but maybe we can bring something different here
but i think, there is no point to ask staff to vote cause students themselves never want to vote. their reasons are so unacceptable.
there should vote, vote, and vote..
shashad?? emmm no comment
I don't know anything about him
moreover, I don't think he is the best choice
but what to do, this is what we called democracy
btw, gayeeks out there,
what do you think if I'm gonna be one of the nominee for next year??what do you think??
can I win the election..hahahaha
Day dreaming!!!!
chill!!keep smiling...lalalala
April 3, 2009 at 1:04 AM
haha we have a hater here
cool site dude kinda reminded me of Youtube comments hehe
April 3, 2009 at 1:13 AM
Youtube comments are just the same like this blog do man. Haha and you GaYeeks1.2, I will vote for you man. We have the same interest, so I hope when you're become the SA executives, the gay club will be approved. Yeah!
April 3, 2009 at 1:15 AM
By the way, I love Sharshad's hair. Muah!
April 3, 2009 at 1:20 AM
errr, Sharshad's hair?

April 3, 2009 at 1:37 AM

April 6, 2009 at 12:14 AM
actually,,,
who will become the next SA president huh???
April 6, 2009 at 4:40 PM
im not sure
since GaYeeks have a very wide connection
especially the 1.2,
I heard that the former education officer, Isaac
is going to post for the position.
yet, it's not easy to win
coz i heard that Sally,
foundation business who loss for last election
is going to be one of the competator
she's quite brave, intelligent and outspoken
creative and she has a good leadership
one should not underestimate her ability
coz....i'm one of her big supporter
who is going to campaign for her...
so.....
if you wanna noe who is GaYeeks 1.2,
you should know who is going to help Sally for the election.
once you know GaYeeks 1.2, u'll easily know the rest GaYeeks..hehehehe
so good luck to whoever
wants to know our identities
chill!!keep smiling...lalalala
April 10, 2009 at 3:53 AM
What the hell GaYeeks1.2? You are a disgrace to our clan! You're gonna expose us to the world aren't you agent 1.2?

@Anonymous: haha;your life itself became a big zero. Everyone knows who did illegal things acc. to SA constitution. sending spam mails to all people who is influential among their nations. You were an SA exec. What did you do during the election? you and all other SA exec.(who were ur friends) including the secretary of that time were sitting near election booth and dragging students to vote against me for your friend. Even after I got elected,u didn't leave me. You send a malicious letter to management asking for a re-election.you tried your best in all ways.but still the whole university was with me.Most of the students told me they would make me win just because they had enough of incompetent and abnormal SA execs like you. And for your info. if you check SA secretary folder files, you can see that the director of university testified you as mentally abnormal due to the things you did to me and for abusing the higher management using the word 'a**h***'.In SA 2009-10 all ur friends who got elected never saw the office.Those were completely inactive posts.The one who you tried to replace me with got expelled the same year from the university due to poor studies.you were advocating for a guy who can't even cop up with his first year studies to take up the SA post.On the other hand,I proved to be as one of the active officers in our time.Even though I was in my final yrs,along with SA I graduated with first class.And u shameless,after that even came to me for help. Adios, greatest ***** of all time in UNMC.
