In the middle of Saskatchewan, a blogger returns to the Blogosphere:
The Wayward Reporter is back!
I am definitely going to be watching his blog for coverage of any new USSU happening. With USSU elections around the corner, I think things are going to heat up again.
BTW, call out – anyone with any idea on potential USSU candidates, I am interested. Actually, I am very interested. I am going to call it now, this is the SU Presidential race to watch this year.
(Unless I am crazy enough to run for MSU President, then the joint MSU-University smear campaign will be very interesting)
Fellow fans of Joey Coleman’s blog — Let’s start a “Draft Joey!” campaign to get him to run for MSU president!
Who’s with me on this?
Potential Candidates:
(These are just rumours–hence why some names appear twice–and of course no one is for sure at this point anyway)
President: Ryan Allan (incumbent) Brad Flavell (VP Academic) Cody Lang (VP Operations Finance) Alice Collins (VP External) —yes, all but one executive Ben David (MSC)
VP Finance: Cody Lang (incumbent) Nick Ansaldo (Candidate last year & former MSC)
VP Student Issues: Josie Steeves
VP External: Josie Steeves (msc) Alice Collins (incumbent) Blair Pisio (candidate last year)
VP Academic: none
I already ruled out a run myself.
Oh, and yes. This Presidential Election should be a hot one. I’m pumped. Maybe voter turnout will get into the 20% range!
I can rule out a few of those people for you! Rule out myself for VP Student Issues for sure, as well as Nick Ansaldo (he’s not even a student right now).
