Wednesday, I noticed Mitch Tripple, the Students United candidate for VPA, intercepting students near the polling station in Fletcher Argue. He was a veritable whirlwind of campaigning: he grabbed their attention, directed them to the polling booth and instructed them as his feelings of who is the best slate. No other slate was around.
In University Centre, I walked by three other three other SU candidates. I also saw Ben Singer strolling by from CS, but I didn't see him intercept anyone.
I resolved to return to Arts Thursday to photograph the candidates in action.
Alas, I could only find Sid Rashid, SU candidate for VPSS, who was not nearly as whirlwind-ish, preferring to chat up students. Actually, they were all female students. But I'm not judging.
Someone had also erected a cutesy display with SU gear.
The polling booth was located in Fletcher Argue, across from the Greenhouse Cafe. I observed a girl in a foreign accent directing another student to vote for Students United and pointing to their posters, but she didn't seem to be a volunteer. Perhaps she had been smitten by Rashid.What have your observations been?
