Elections Night Live
It's been an emotional ride (that X Factor enough for you?). Speak for yourself, I'm off for a scuba in the deep blue! Have a good night everyone, and thanks for tuning in :)
That's it for us, we'll be off to Oash, or bed (probably bed)
Phew, what a night
Corky "A huge thank you to everyone who voted, I'm absolutely overwhelmed by the number of votes... It looks like a really good exec... Lets go to Ocean!"
Corky has approached the stage to make his winning speech
To sum up, next years exec are: Sarah Joy Lewis (ESJ), Michael De Vletter (Edu), Sarah Williams (AU), Danny Barry (DemComms), Julia Seal (AccComm), Sam Le Pard (FSO), Rosie Tressler (Equal Opps and Welfare), Simon Murphy (Activities), Alex Cork-Adelman (President)
Re: Oash: these jokes are getting a bit pacific...
Looking forward to our SU Exec elec arriving back downstairs to the Den
Well done to all the candidates who did a great job campaigning
All exec winners being invited to stage for final event of the evening. What is the final event of the evening?
Corky "Well done to URN, NUTs etc for SU election coverage" YAY
Corky re Samo- "Really unfortunate with everything that happened"
That means that with 5175 votes CORKY is PRESIDENT!
With 707 was RON
with 696 votes Ngoc Tran was eliminated in the First Round
6576 votes in total
Will Vicks is 'incredibly proud'
Re: Oash, I sea what you did there
Ngoc vs. Ron vs. Corky
(in no particular order)
It's the time you've all been waiting for.. the results of the Presidential candidate
Re: Oash: Lucy, it's better than the constant unoriginal FB albums named "taking a dip"... how about next time "hit an Iceberg and drowned in..."?
'Oash' the new name for ocean?
Smurf's speech was short, we didn't catch it all. sorry. but we think it involved going to ocean. sorry to the texter who is getting angry at people going to ocean.
And therefore I lighty
Re: President Ron: Controversial... Me likey
Smurf is getting mauled in the corner by his mates
Will RON make an appearance? I'm betting yes. If I'm wrong, I owe you a coke.
Re: below, Yeah it's outrageous. People really should give Corky a chance, he might pull it off
Re: bailing for Ocean: Disgraceful everyone leaving before president is announced
The FINAL result of President will be announced at one o'clock... its a tough one, couldn't call it..
And the undisputed winner of endlessly- repeadted cliche- of-the-night is... hotly contested!
re bloc vote: another week one
Activities Officer: Simon Murphy with 2776 votes
Stop mic hogging Douggie, we wanna know who won Activities! Your time has passed!
Douggie "This time last year I was crying and vomiting". Nice.
ooo Activities about to be announced... its a good 'un
Any mums and dads out there? send in your texts!
Could it be that tonight might actually end in time? Shouldn't have sold that Ocean ticket to a candidate...
re below: thanks for that
2 results left to go!!
Results for Activities next and then The Big One
Rosie T says 'sorry Mum for crying' in her winning speech
We love you Elorm
man up.. yeahhhh
Re: Ocean leavers: "Pull of ocean", URN? I think you mean "bed". 2 weeks of campaigning will take it out of anyone.
Re: candidates leaving: they have had a very tough two weeks and have a whole year to make a difference, allow them a night to celebrate. Chill out.
Re: an emotional Rosie: Can't wait to see that clip of Rosie in tears in the NUTS ad for the 2012 elections
Re: candidates leaving after their results, interesting debate raised there. What do you think about the pull of Ocean for candidates who claim to care about our SU?
For all these candidates who 'care' bout the SU its odd they leave straight after their result
I hope rosie never wins an oscar, shed hav a heart attack
Rosie Tressler for Equal Opps: "Ducking Love It!!!!"
Re: bloc voting: Totally agree with the week one / karni bloc votes. Am sure it puts off a lot of non affiliated people from running
Equal Opps and Welfare: Rosie Tressler with a whopping 2958 votes
Still heart you philip geller.
re bloc vote: Smurf and Gareth will split the Karni vote?
Re: WeekOne bloc: If by group you mean two?
Equal Opps and Welfare about to be announced...
Has the week one bloc-vote replaced the karni bloc-vote? Its not healthy for a group of mates to be elected together
Re: dominance of WeekOne Exec, any comments? Do you think Karni, New Theatre, WeekOne dominate the candidates too much?
SU Exec is basically WeekOne Exec, Lads xxxxxxxxx
Getting bored of this week one domination now...
We're loving the BS bingo notion!
at marketing strategy is obviously important, wouldn't we rather have people who will actually be good on the SU exec? No fro,seal mask or superwoman costume (as the case may be) will hide any mistakes these guys make once they're in their positions!
Re: campaign promises - SU should archive old promises from old candidates and play BS bingo with them. Swipe cards, more soc money, hopper to lenton, BINGO!
Finance and Services officer: Sam Le Pard with 3170 votes
FSO coming up next, extremely contested position about to be revealed. I can tell you're on the edge of your seat. Let's see who's got tiger blood, and ends up winning
re best campaign video: rosie has the best campaign video and the best campaign! X
Julia Seal: "I'm just so happy and I'm so grateful... I can't really explain, I just can't believe it"
An emotional Julia Seal takes to the stage for her winning speech
Favourite campaign video anyone?
On a different note, how good was Samo's video!!!!?
Danny Barry "going round to halls and dinner shout outs" makes a good campaign. Do Freshers votes make a big difference?
URN's Olly and Liam interviewing Danny Barry- he says he was so so nervous but now he is over the moon!
re Freshers Unite: Olly and Liam say "It's a bit late now freshers"
Re: Seal related texts: "Signed. Sealed. Delivered"
re seal texts: got any more?
Julia gets the seal of approval :)
She sealed that deal.
Re 'freshers unite': Do freshers bring 'fresh' ideas or are older, possibly more experienced candidates the better option?
Re: Phil Gellar doesn't retreat, can you think of a Chuck Norris style sentence for any of the other candidates?!
Phil geller doesn't retreat, he just campaigns in the other direction
Freshers unite! Matt Byrne and Rob Hudson must win!
Julie Seal "Special thanks to my housemate who painted my banner and wrote on it 'Accommodation and Communion'"
Seal sealed the deal!
Accommodation and Community Officer: Julia Seal with 2726 votes
We're going back to the SU Hub for the results of Accomodation and Community
Continuing debate on Danny Barry and Sammy B, any more thoughts?
Interesting that people use the word 'robbed' in relation to danny's victory - it was a democratic vote. The people chose who the people wanted. Was a very close call with two VERY good candidates.
How AWKWARD will it be if rosie doesn't win
We have an election rumour... word is out that Equal Opps and Welfare might be being announced nearer the end as the votes are so close... ooo, juicy
tec, urn, nuts and impact are doing great, keep up the great work!
re below: thoughts?
Sammy B was robbed. I couldn't name a single person more qualified than he is for the role or more committed to the SU.
Re: loving a Bob... This is not a forum to discuss your sexual confusion. Either love Rob or love the Bob. You cannae have both.
Mysterious bob, I want your body close to mine
Bob?! Rob ?! Mmmmm.ugh ugh ugh DON'T STOP BOB
Re: wild election promises... What do you all think about candidates making claims and promises they probably cannot keep?
Swills Wtf! Wild election promises!
Re keeping texts clean, Louisa and Lucy thoroughly agree. We're not normally awake past nine pm so for our delicate eyes, let's keep this all pre watershed material please
Please keep all texts clean and full of love x
We love you Ollie and Liam!! Xxxxxxxxx
Re Sammy B, what are all your views? Did we need to go with the Fro, yay or nay? Or was Sammy B really robbed?
Sammy B was ROBBED! By far the better candidate! Goes to show it's all a popularity contest :(
Re: heaven's door... what about, hello? is it me your ngocing for?
RE: mature officer- don't mention that bloody hopper bus!
Ngoc Ngoc Ngocking on heavens door
Dave and Andy's award for fittest campaign team goes to Swills'
Democracy and Communications: Danny Barry with 3414 votes
Re: Charlie Sheen- he has a different constitution, we can't see him
Re: mature officer - yep. Most of us just get on with stuff pragmatically rather than fight for change, and feel the SU is to focused on piss-ups and bus
Has anyone seen Charlie Sheen anywhere?
Debate: Do you need big balls to be Equal Opps and Welfare Officer?
Vote for the blue power ranger... U need big balls for the job and he has em!!!! Vote Elorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrm!!!
Rosie doing her Women's Officery duties
Message from Rosie... Please can we stop objectifying the female candidates! P.s well done swills!
So proud of jenbies ingram!! Well done to rose and aimee though! Big lovin x
Swills just gave her acceptance speech- 'Massive thanks to my campaign team'
Congrats to swills! Hope she manages to push through her policy of redoing the gym sign up fees!
Re below: For Mature Officer RON got 57 votes, Adam Abukari got 337. Should there be more campaigning to get more people putting themselves forward as candidates in future so this sort of thing doesn't happen?
Kind of disappointed mature rep wasn't reopened to new nominations. How many did that option get?
Gareth is bi-winning
Re ocean prelash: We thought this too and then we were dumped in front of some macs and haven't been able to leave... I've even got my cozzie on ready
DAVID EDGCUMBE MARRY ME NOW
AU Officer: Sarah 'Swills' Willis with 3172 votes

Watching 'Ngoc Tranet Earth'- Andy and Dave's search for her hidden campaign
Hottest candidate: rosie tressler no contest xxx
Elorm and Sophie and Seal look stunning.
Best supporting role in a campaign video goes to Lavan the Champagne man from Gareth's video
"Smurf, but in a dirty way" Latest news from the Pulse ladies...
No. that is shallow and it's their policies that count anyway (we'd go for Rory)
Hottest candidates?? Discuss...
Who would win in a fight on battle of the superheroes? Elorm or Sophie? Hmm...
couldn't agree more :)

Gah! Get on the twitter updates! I had to leave the house and I can't listen to the radio any more! Davs x
This message board has turned dirty...almost as dirty as Tom Day before Sam Le Pard bathed him
Ron Jeremy Silver Curly Wurly for best bulge is awarded to Elorm...
Re: Women are objects. If women are objects, how come that texter probably doesn't own one? Discuss.
Women are objects. Of course we only talk about them in terms of looks
Is ngoc tran related to gok wan?
All the texts about female candidates so far tonight have been related to their looks... any potential feminists out there have something to say about this?!
What kind of bees make milk? Boo bees!

Re condom flavour debate, I have to enquiry where on earth you buy your condoms?! I've never beaten malibu but if there's dandelion and burdock I'm missing out...

nuts are doing the most pathetic interview with phil. ive come back to urn now

rosie tressler is definitely hot. end the debate now.
That's not true! I though Tom Ryan was an awesome actor! X
watching Andy and Dave's video about 'A Day in the Life of the Exec'... Will Vicks reads fan mail ('where's my Hopper Bus you sh*t), Katie Mac tastes condoms for Easy Tiger and Bicky likes to finish his day down the pub with his Tory mates
Loving the election coverage but we love 'wake up with tyler and Freya' more...love tyler and Freya ;) x

Re to the text below, we're starting a debate on the homoerotic tension between Ollie and Liam. Are they in denial?
