Ben Ordonez has filed a petition with the ASUO Constitution Court to place the EMU Referendum back on the ballot and to remove President Ben Eckstein from office.
Ordonez’s petition stems from Eckstein’s decision to take the EMU Referendum off of the ballot. Ordonez, the former communications director of the Students United campaign in the 2011 ASUO elections, asserts that Eckstein lacked the authority to make this change.
“By removing a ballot measure from a scheduled election, which had already been approved by the Constitution Court, he not only committed an act that he is not constitutionally allowed, but also broke through that crucial barrier between Executive and Elections Board,” the petition said.
