Before the vote counting Wednesday night the committee held a meeting to rule on the validity of the impounded ballots. The committee decided to check each individual ballot rather than throw out all the ballots at Fraser or declare the entire election void.
Not Committee Function
Not Committee Function Griffith said it was not the function of the election committee to investigate beyond the validity of the ballots. He said he assumed it would come under the jurisdiction of the student court, and that any action would have to be initiated by the student prosecutor.
Forty-three ballots from the Student Union poll were thrown out after the actual counting began.
Leaders of both parties attributed the AGI victory to the large independent turnout and the personal popularity of Billings.
Griffith said the ballots were stuffed because of the identical markings and the manner in which they were folded. Bill Jackson, Florence junior and POGO president, told the election committee early in the evening that he planned to contest the election, but later withdrew his protest.
"I said before that if the independents wanted to do something on this campus all they had to do was to make up their minds to do it." Jackson said. "Our party was outvoted and the independent vote in every school was enough to swing the vote for AGI."
