All of the controversy surrounding the recent ASUO executive wins by Sam Dotters-Katz, Johnny Delashaw and the Oregon Action Team is completely unfounded and in a word childish. The people have spoken because what they want is a change and where they can find that change is in the hands of Sam Dotters-Katz and Johnny Delashaw. This election was won because of great campaigning and real answers to the issues that students face everyday on campus, not by cheating or lying or any of the other accusations that have been thrown around during the past five days. Yes it’s true that the Oregon Action Team raised more money than its opponents and as a result spent more. Personally I have a much bigger problem with special interest groups that take my money off campus (and then run a candidate for an executive position) than with personally donated money being used to campaign for real change in the ASUO.
In regards to the accusations against Sara Hamilton, I urge everyone to think logically about how legitimate they really sound. It should make all of you question what’s going on here.
