Oops, SGA Election Over at Last Presidential, Vice-Presidential Election Votes Counted, Winners Declared By Dawn N. Pasley News Editor Tuesday's runoff elections for student body president and vice-president produced clear-cut winners from the remaining field of four candidates. Jesse Lyons was declared winner of the election for student body president after receiving 262 votes compared to A. Jermaine Baxter's 191. Nine ballots were unmarked as to which presidential candidate the voter preferred to bring the total number of ballots to 462. Jermaine Perry won the vice-presidential election with 285 votes edging out Chris Hall who got 161 votes. There was one write-in vote, and fifteen ballots were left unmarked with a choice of vice-presidential candidate. Lyons, a management and financial planning double major from Franklin, has had a year's worth of experience in the SGA Senate. He serves as president of the Kappa Alpha Order and is a member of the College Republicans. Perry is a psychology major from Rocky Mount and serves as vice-president1 of the College Democrats. He has served a year in Senate as the representative for the Organization of Ebony Students. Lyons and Perry will each complete an "internship" in the weeks ahead to orient them with the duties of their respective positions, and will begin serving next fall. «W Jermaine Perry, Student Body Vice-President-Elect Jesse Lyons, Student Body President-Elect SGA Approves Club Funding By Dawn N. Pasley News Editor The SGA Senate unanimously approved a resolution Tuesday that detailed the budget for club and organization funding for the 2001-2002 school year. Earlier in the semester, the Senate's Finance Committee, chaired by Bradley Lovin, accepted applications for funding from all organizations recognized by SGA. These applications included questions about the group's activities, its predicted financial needs to carry out activities, and how these activities might benefit the university community. Based on the applications and further information given by members of the group at budget hearings, the committee decided how much each group would be allotted for the coming year. The committee first set aside $3000 in supplemental funding. Any group that has been funded under the original club and organization budget may apply for a portion of these funds if it can demonstrate the necessity. Another $2000 was given to two graduate student groups: $500 to the History Graduate Student Association, and $1500 to establish a Graduate Student Association. After that money had been set aside, the committee decided what monetary amount every club and organization should receive, based on the information from the applications and budget hearings. The total came to $29,000, which combined with the $5000 that had already been laid aside for supplemental funding and the graduate student organizations, was over their budget. To solve this dilemma, the committee applied a 17 percent cut across the board to the amount of funding that each organization had been preliminary given. The result was a club and organization funding budget that was presented to the Senate for approval and was unanimously adopted. Student Body President Joanthan Rowe will sign the resolution, granting it permanence, next Tuesday at 5 p.m. If any organizations wish to dispute the amounts they were budgeted, they should contact J.J. Rowe in the SGA office. Budget Conflicts Solved Before Vote By Samantha Helms Asst. News Editor SGA Senate approved funding for the College Republicans and the Jewish Student Organization (JSO) after a period of conflict between the organizations and the SGA's Finance Committee. The College Republicans received $249, and JSO received $166. "This is the first year we've received a low amount," said Chris Ertel, a member of College Republicans and chief of staff for SGA. "We asked for $900." SGA Finance Committee's preliminary budget did not fund either organization, according to Jonathan Rowe, SGA president. 'Traditionally, we haven't funded religious organizations but have funded political organizations," said Rowe. "The College Republicans were denied funding because they were using their money for things too pro-Republican. JSO didn't receive any because they are a religious organization." There were several conflicts within the Finance Committee when deciding whether or not to fund the organizations, according to Ertel. "The reasons the Finance Committee gave for not funding the organizations were unacceptable," said Ertel. "They said that we didn't use the money in the way that we specified we would in last year's budget request." Ertel said that the College Republicans registered voters and shuttled them to and from Cullowhee Valley elementary school, which is what they said they were going to do. Jermaine Perry, an SGA senator, believes JSO should receive funding as well. "JSO is supposedly a religious organization, but they are an ethnic group as well. They deserve funding." JSO received $ 166 because this is the first year that it has applied for funding, and other organizations in the same situation received the same amount of funds.
