The Cavalier daily :: Tuesday, March 27, 1973 :: University of Virginia Library

Student Council President
Jim Rinaca and Vice President
Larry Sabato issued a
statement yesterday
concerning an article which
appeared in yesterday's The
Cavalier Daily.

"It should be clearly
understood that the
responsibility for any leak of
election tallies before polls
were closed last Wednesday lies
squarely with the Student
Council, rather than any
individual candidate," they
said.

"Some individuals were
apparently not informed of, or
did not understand the
necessity of holding
preliminary returns in strictest
confidence. Supporters of
many candidates revealed these
returns to others outside of the
tally room during the course of
the afternoon."

"We have taken steps to
correct these procedural flaws
in preparation for this week's
runoff election, and we
sincerely regret any difficulties
which this incident has caused.
We hope that no candidate will
be unjustly penalized for
Council's error."
