    Ok so Declan (Meenagh) is in his final year and is almost 110% definitely running for a sabbat position what with the state of the economy for graduates and his massive dedication and commitment to a well run and carbon neutral union.

    Anybody else want to help with the naming?

    Grace Crehan is running for president.

    You've edited that now and it makes it look like I'm having a stab at Declan. Which is not what I done. I do welcome Declan running.

    <snip> I also do not believe she is a poster on this board, I'm not aware of that anyway. Candidates were bashed left, right and center on here last year yet any time I've been critical of members of MSU this year I get flak. I can dig up those threads if the mods would like.

    Grace is a member of boards.ie

    Digging up old threads is a pointless endeavor with a new mod this year.

    Being critical of someone is fine if you can back it up with hard evidence. And I mean HARD evidence. Otherwise it's just pointless and potentially harmful hot air. The mods will decide how reliable evidence is. I would advise never doing this anyway, and discus a candidate's manifesto - not the candidate his/herself.

    I'm enforcing a zero tolerance policy from this post on for this thread. Any slander, hint at slander or idiotic snipes will result in an immediate ban until the elections are over. Anyone who argues with me on this will be banned for the same length of time. I don't have patience for silly squabbles.

    I would strongly advise everyone read the charter before posting here.

    In short: Everyone play nice. A little civility never hurt anyone.

    Dickhead?

    Anyway, how exactly do you give hard evidence that you disagree with someone's politics? Or complete lack of them as the case may be? Or is opinion not allowed?

    I wasn't aiming that at you, it was a general statement.

    See you after the elections.

    Well this thread's about to kick back into full swing, so I might as well be the one to do it.

    I handed in my nomination form earlier today. Keith Broni (BuroniKiisu): candidate for Vice President / Communications & Development. Straight from the horse's mouth.

    What's the point in Keith Broni for Vice President / Communications & Development if we don't have the right to life?

    I currently know of four candidates; two definitely confirmed. One of the other two plans to run a joke campaign.

    Shouldn't this be 12pm after the last Union Council?

    EDIT: Whoops, silly me; forgot the Guardianships ruling on the change of schedules.
