    I've heard that a 4th year Civil Engineer has thrown his name into the ring for SU President..he gets my vote anyway..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3 Woodwork4Life


    That 4th year business student is Declan Maguire, I know because I signed his form today!

    Kelly e-mailed me about being on her campaign team, so it's definitely an elaborate troll if it is.

    I believe Cathal Ronan to be in the running for Welfare.

    I was also told, Baz would only run if unopposed.

    Still making up my mind if Moursy is actually running, he could also be trolling :P

    William Jennings is going for Welfare too. 2 4th Year Business students, head to head...Interesting...

    So who's running and who isn't there seems to be way too many names been thrown back and forth!

    I would like to say that I am NOT running for the position of ULSU President.

    I have no idea who started the rumor on Boards.ie - but I found it highly entertaining at how fast it grew legs, considering I found out about it via facebook and a phone call from my father!!!
    If I were ever to run, it would be after I finish my degree & it wouldn't be for the position of President.

    I would however, would like to wish those that are running, the very best of luck for the next week, and for those that will get elected - the best of luck for the year ahead.

    Lets have a fun week everyone! :)

    Tríona O' Sullivan,
    NOT a candidate for the ULSU elections

    Just a word of advice.

    Any potential candidate would be foolish not to spend at least 20 minutes talking to the incumbent in the position which they seek.

    Whatever some of the ill informed out there think of ULSU, they will not be able to give you a decent indication of the level of work and type of role you are getting yourself into.

    I would like to wish all the candidates for all positions (there are 7, not just 3) the best of luck and I will be out campaigning next week, canvassing students to ask them to vote, nothing more, just to vote. In will also use it as an opportunity to gather some feedback to leave on the desk for whoever may succeed me. It may even shape my handover document.

    I think Adam Moursy and Dave Hartery would both make good presidents.

    Thanks! I actually do hope Adam isn't running, that would make winning a lot harder!

    Do we know if that is actually Triona? I just saw her post a status about running earlier...

    Lots of people in for President now it seems! the game is afoot!

    Did you not see her subsequent status saying it was a frape? ;)

    saw that literally after I posted.

    What do people make of nominations closing at 6pm on Thursday? Makes things pretty interesting, had been hoping to have a weekend to finalise stuff.

    It also makes the C&S ball fair game for campaigning.. :pac:

    It seems shes not running for president but I saw a form for welfare with her name on it.
    Welfare is going to be a tight race with 5 candidates now.

    Thank you very much I appreciate the support. My name isn't too well known around the SU. Not sure if that's a good or bad thing but sure see how it goes. Going to think over everything tonight and see where I am tomorrow.

    I'll give you a hand out as well lad.

    What if a potential candidate was Inanimate?


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,366 ✭✭✭ninty9er


    Well if they're not a registered student of the University of Limerick then they're not a potential candidate.


  • Registered Users Posts: 857 ✭✭✭Polar Ice


    Last I checked, Inanimate Carbon Rod was a highly studious individual.

    Andrew O Doherty spotted in the library collecting signatures. Not sure which position he is collecting for, I wasn't asked to sign his form :(

    You're knew sew weal cut you some slack.

    Grammar and spelling Nazis not welcome in these parts, thanks.

    Ye all have very little to be doing if yer complaining about spelling and grammar. Someone is after putting themselves out there to run for elections and you sit behind your laptop and pick out his spelling mistakes.

    I wish them all the very best of luck.

    What are you talking about Aoife? This is a message forum which relies on communication via the medium of text, what do we have without correct grammar and spelling?

    I'll quickly highlight the spelling and grammatical mistakes in your post, even allowing for the archaic usage of the plural ye. Actually, the whole post is incredibly badly written and I'll just stop.

    Secondly, the unionjack fellow is a totally unconfirmed candidate for the upcoming elections. It's rather ironic you calling out another poster for not having the guts to run for election themselves. I wouldn't be surprised if the SU witches had some role to play in this 'unionjack' campaign.

    Yes, but on the other hand, anyone who could possibly be representing the SU should at least have good English communication skills when it comes to being in public eyes. It's not hard in fairness.
