StuCo elections, School Lobby, Monday morning

In lieu of Nathan's usual office hours, he instead made sure that everything was set up for the Student Council Elections. Like any proper election, he set up a boundary so that there was a safe zone for voting, and a place where last minute campaigning could happen. There was also a table with flyers in case anyone wanted to read their candidates' positions.

He also posted the rules:

ELECTION RULES:

1. You may only vote within your class
2. Freshmen vote for one candidate, all others vote for two
3. No campaigning by the voting box

Nathan debated adding something about requiring voters to bring him coffee, but he did actually believe in fair elections.

All that was left was one other sign:

VOTE NOW!

[ooc: OCD is up! OOCly the elections will close at 9am Eastern, tomorrow (Sept 23) ICly they are only going on today, Sept 22.]

Set up here if you want to do some final handshaking, postering, convincing people to vote for you, etc.

For any conversations you feel like having in the area that don't relate directly to talking to the candidates or Nathan.

He's around just to make sure there's no cheating. He would also love coffee.

Any OOC stuff can go here! (As opposed to the post with the voting)

Ella was there, holding a basket of muffins and scrutinizing the students going in and out of the voting booth for anyone who might be persuadable.

Um. WHERE'S THE SHIRTLESS PASDAR?

Lee hadn't any sort of campaigning due to unforeseen circumstances but hey, he was there today and, at least, smiling and telling people to vote for him.

Naomi was there with the last of the posters she had made for today, she didn't have any baked goods there with her but she figured she could always make something that afternoon if it would help convince people to vote for her.

Ned wasn't running but he'd promised Turtle. So, there were three pies laid out: rich chocolate pecan pie (http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/emeril-lagasse/rich-chocolate-pecan-pie-recipe3/index.html), apple (http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/the-cookworks/grandmas-apple-pie-recipe/index.html) and cherry (http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/sweet-dreams/sugar-topped-cherry-pie-recipe/index.html).

There were little flags in each one saying 'VOTE FOR TURTLE' and a smaller note in front of the pies that read 'TAKE A PIECE' in Ned's small scrawl.

*fixes!*

Blair came over and scrutinized the muffins. "Did you make these yourself?"

Ella shook her head. "I cheated and went to Jeff's," she admitted. "I have two classes today, and I forgot to bake over the weekend."

"Probably for the best," Blair said. "It shows you support local businesses."

"And they're probably even tastier than mine would be," Ella said. "I got a nice assortment."

Her eyes were drawn to the students casting their vote. "There's so much competition in our class. Any edge helps."

"I don't suppose you saved anyone's life over the weekend?" Blair asked. "That could help."

WHEEEEEEEE!

Nathan is an entity unto himself, but I really miss scruffy, bespectacled, geeky anthropologist Pasdar. Not that he was the reason I took my first anthro class, which resulted in a major. That would be terribly silly.

Ella thought about it. "Um ... I ..." She didn't want to admit she'd ~~gotten shamefully neglected, WTF mun~~ spent most of the weekend in her room. "Not so much, no. Did anyone on the ballot?"

Eventually, Ender had come down from the roof. He hadn't slept since, and he was tired. Unused as he was to political campaigning (and that decision had been nothing more than a wish to be useful again, for once) he had brought nothing but himself, and he lingered for a while, observing everyone else as much as he was 'campaigning'.

Joan was milling around the lobby and wearing a sticker that said "Vote for Joan".

She really would have rather been in bed, but a certain someone had prodded her to be around in case anyone had questions for her.

There had been a lot of names on the ballot that Blair hadn't cared about, so she hadn't paid attention.

"I won my tournament," she said instead, since she was proud of that. "Maybe associating with me will help you by proxy. Moreso than usual."

"Congratulations," Ella said. "What was the challenge?" She was imaging something like swordfighting, which was a bit of an odd mental image for Blair. "And I'd appreciate any help I could get. I probably ought to have come to you sooner."

"Proving myself superior to one of their students," Blair said. "Not that that was hard."

Sam hadn't managed to get much done over the weekend, but he was here now, getting his name out one last time if anyone wanted to chat.

Peter had stopped by to vote. Spotting Sam, he angled his way over. "Hey."
