"My fingers ... I can't feel them but they're burning," said CCAS-U candidate Eric Woodard. Woodard and his supporters had some trouble getting their posters to stick to the plaster walls outside of the Marvin Center, "but we're in good spirits," he said.
The cold seemed to cut back on the number of people who showed up this year, said sophomore Laura Bentele, chair of the Joint Elections Committee, a five-person body that is overseeing the elections. The event was "pretty subdued because of the weather," she said. "Definitely because of the cold we had less people show up."
Bentele and other JEC officials oversaw the event to make sure the candidates and their supporters followed proper procedures. As the excitement from the initial rush calmed down, she had yet to witness any violations of the election rules, but said JEC officials would survey the posters to make sure all candidates complied with the rules. For example, candidates can be charged with a violation of the JEC charter if posters overlap one another or if they are too high off the ground.
In addition to the Marvin Center and the Academic Center, posters were hung at the Law School near University Yard and outside of Funger Hall.
Not all the candidates for SA President made the run across H Sstreet Friday morning.
"(David) Tito (Wilkinson) is at Mount Vernon," said EVP candidate Brand Kroeger, referring to his running mate Wilkinson, a junior who is running for SA president.
"We sent the president out there. They need a special love," said Kroeger, a sophomore.
