I voted for Creighton/Brar because they weren't wasting a lot of
money, time, etc. on paper posters, candy, free food, or anything
else.  I'm always a little annoyed by campaign posters, because it
seems like people should have something better to do or think about
than how to get enough attention to get elected to student offices.  I
appreciate Rhett's direct approach.

Also, the UA isn't worthless.  It's definitely important to have
students who specialize in talking to the administration and figuring
out how to represent student ideas.  Rhett is pretty different than
most UA people, and diversity makes an organization stronger.
