New Council Officers Larry Sabato and Mark Vorder Brueggs

In elections again marked by
flaws in elections procedures,
third-year man Larry Sabato
and second-year man Mark
Vorder Bruegge were elected
Student Council President and
Vice President, running
unopposed in modest voting
Wednesday and yesterday.

The flaw occurred when the
ballot box at the Law School
was left open until 7:10 p.m.,
when it should have been
closed at 4. A first-year law
student, Chuck Garrett, won
the election over second-year
student Joel Gardner 98 to 71.
Robert Morris came in third
with 38 votes.

Mr. Gardner said that he
would not protest the election
results in the Law School
despite the possible late
balloting which may have
taken place. He did say,
however, he thought the late
closing definitely could have
made a difference in the
election.

No Sign-Up Sheet

Mr. Gardner also said that
the whole voting procedure at
the Law School was marred,
noting that the ballot box did
not have a sign-up sheet during
yesterday's balloting.

Committee Chairman Paul
Freeman said that someone
was assigned to pick the box
up at 4 p.m. but "just forgot."
