BREAKING ***Davis Wins An Injunction Keeping the Two Referendums Off the Ballot*** BREAKING
Mike Davis filed suit, alleging that the descriptions for the two referendums to be voted on this election (the Student Voice lobbying thing, and the GA autonomy thing) contained biased descriptions. Earlier today, he won an injunction almost certainly destined to fuck things up. Here is the language from the Judicial Council decision (click to download), in Davis v. Elections Council and Attorney General: The Council hereby accepts to hear charges on two counts of violation of Title IV Sect 10.3, regarding the Graduate Assembly referendum vote and the Student Voice referendum vote. Additionally, due to the similarities of the charges, these two cases will be joined into one.(The PatriotBlog beat me to this, so I'm using the same quote they posted already). Like the other Davis case described below, the shit has hit the fan. In this case, the primary remedy for the supporters of this referendum seems to be to seek an online election. After ASUC election voting has finished, they could potentially hold an online election for the referendums, just like we did with the recent Health Care Fee Referendum. And true to that, I have received word that a backer of the Student Voice referendum will be proposing that very thing at the Senate meeting on Wednesday. This might be the incentive for CalSERVE, longtime opponents of online voting, to join with Student Action in supporting an online election. And once you go This has been the day of breaking news, so scroll down to catch it all, and be sure to check back in for updates.Email This Post! |
