Two independents running for Senate
By Jay Wliiams
Kansan staff writer
Not all the candidates in the Student Senate elections joined coalitions in their efforts to be elected by the student body April 8 and 9.
Two candidates have decided to run for Senate seats as independent candidates.
David Barney, San Diego graduate student, will run for a graduate Senate seat.
Barney is a graduate senator this year, having taken office as a replacement senator in early November.
The other independent candidate, Ashley Langford, Wathena sophomore, is competing for one of the two journalism seats. She has no previous Senate experience.
The two coalitions in this year's election, Vision and Unless, both impressed Barney, hesaid.
"I saw the pluses of both the coalitions," he said. "I couldn't really decide which group to run with."
Barney said he wanted to work on issues concerning American Indians, women and gays and lesbians.
Barnley has the luxury of not having to campaign actively. Tengraduate students are competing for 13 seats, meaning everyone will win a Senate seat.
"I want to make sure minority student groups get enough funding," he said.
"It would be one of the more educational and more fun parts
Hesaid he did not plantoc campaign.

of Senate," Barney said. "But I don't have the time and energy to do it."
He said that he had not talked much about the campaign with his friends and that no one was involved in his campaign.
Langford said that she agreed with Vision's views on the issues but that Vision already had two candidates on itsticket.
She said she would like to see more personal communication between the administration and students about issues such as improving enrollment.
Because there will be competition for the journalism seat, Langford said she would do some campaigning. She said she would talk with people in the journalism school and place posters to let people know that she is a candidate.
Barney and Langford could draw inspiration from Marcia Quiros, graduate senator, who ran last year as an independent candidate and won. This year, Quiros is a graduate senator candidate for Vision.
She said she did not know exactly how she won, because she did not campaign at all.
"Maybe one reason was because I had a Hispanic-sounding last name or because I was female," Quiros said.

Finney wants lawsuit dropped
The Associated Press
TOPEKA, KA. — Gov. Joan Finney has asked the state Supreme Court to dismiss a lawsuit filed against her by Attorney General Bob Stephan concerning a casino gambling compact she signed with the Kickapoo Tribe.
Bill McCormick, special counsel to the governor and her director of federal and state affairs, filed a memorandum with the court Monday. McCormick said that the court did not have the authority to rule on American Indian gaming issues.
The Supreme Court has before it a petition filed by Stephan almost eight weeks ago. Stephan wants the court to force Finney to submit to the Legislature the compact she signed with the Kickapoo Tribe of northeast Kansas.
a casino on its reservation, about 50 miles northeast of Topeka. U.S. Interior Secretary Manuel Lujan must approve the compact, but he has declined to do so until the state's highest court acts on Stephan's petition.
The compact would allow the tribe to open
In his memo, McCormick said a 1988 federal law required Lujan to act on the compact and accused the secretary of trying to avoid his legal duty by delegating his authority to the state court.
Stephan has argued that the state Supreme Court must decide whether the Kansas Constitution requires the Legislature to ratify a compact between Finney and a tribe for it to be valid. Stephan said that such ratification was required, but Finney said it was not.
Stephan was in Washington yesterday attending a meeting of the National Association of Attorneys General.
