Sheridan Student Union Elections- Please Vote!

I have done some background research into the voting patterns at Sheridan for VP candidates. Last year's margin was a mere 115 votes, with a total of 735 votes. This means that the 9/11 Politics Club can make a real impact on this election.

I have been trying hard to learn about the VP candidates' positions on the issue of 9/11, and I have gotten very good response from Ankit Bhalla, who replied quickly to my request to meet. When we did, I found him to be friendly and straightforward about supporting the club's interests. Ankit would be pleased to make sure our right to free speech is not infringed, and would likely act independently from the school administration.

The other VP candidate Sue Mills has not responded to my calls, emails, or facebook posts. She says about herself: "I want to make sure that everyone knows that I am approachable and that I'm very understanding, and I'm willing to listen." This rings hollow because she's had a week now to respond to me and I haven't heard from her. In addition to that, my opinion is that her platform is immature and image-based. I have little confidence that she would interest herself in or be knowledgeable about the issues relevant to our club.

Voting is Wednesday and Thursday in the Student Centre. If you feel passionate about getting the truth out there and ending these disgusting wars, do your democratic duty and show the new SU directors how much you care.
