Tonight in the SGO, candidates had to file for positions on the Council. The only big surprise seems to be that Colin Drummond, once thought to be vying for the Exec Board, has decided to challenge Mark Johnson for 2009 Council. In what seems to be one of the least contested campaign seasons in recent memory: 2010 and 2011 councils are entirely uncontested races.
In other election news, the Elections Board should be coming out with an Adil Ahmed decision in the coming hours, Bwog will keep you abreast of the situation.
Full candidate listings after the jump.

@jkj looks like colin drummond isnt running amy more…. he didnt show up to the rules meetings…..i wonder if hes disqualified?
@Anonymous Learned Foote is my favorite.
@... joseph daniels is a twat.
@your mom did i raise you to say things like that?
@THANK YOU! THANK GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.
THANK YOU COLIN, JASON, AND COLIN!
sorry mark. its not gonna happen.
@lakersfan well all this confirms that colin is pompous prick
@DHI That’s not really true though.
@double trouble anyone else notice their are two Colin’s on the ticket?
@DHI Colin Drummond don’t need no platform, the dude can just improvise the whole deal.
@COLIN DRUMMOND IS MY HERO!!!
@joseph daniels? really? do you really want a fat, sassy bitch on university senate?
@WTF An Adil Ahmed “decision”? What the fuck, having his personal email posted all over Bwog wasn’t enough of a lesson not to write verbosely? Now the elections board has to make a “decision” about it? Seriously? Student council takes itself way too seriously sometimes. Never mind Bwog.
@random Prezbo’s cleaning lady has more real power than these fools.
@ooh If that position is open, I’d definitely run.
@random All the platforms are the same! The real reason these students runs for student government is so that it’ll look good on their resume.
@well considering the platforms havent come out yet, i’m not sure how you know they’re all the same…
@alexw I will be casting my vote for a bag of ROLD GOLD PRETZELS.
@Mallory Carr is a champ. so is brandon. and heather. and zahrah. they all give alot of time to class council and with them i’m sure senior year will be great.
@Concerned Citizen Robyn Burgess is stuck up and should drop her position immediately. She can’t get anything done!
@Stephen Schwelp I am following the button and voting for Maxwell Smart.
@... David Zhu is a strategic genius.
By running for the one year position, he is counting on pulling the freshman vote his way as he runs against all those juniors who probably don’t know the freshman…… that’s bloody brilliant
@uncontested races are largely due to the elections board doing a horrible job in advertising…or maybe it’s some kind of conspiracy
@yeah and apparently krebs-adil made moves to have the elections schedule pushed back to try to get some new blood into ccsc–i smell the works of an alidad-michelle diamond scheme–at least Colin heard about elections
@On CCSC actually, alidad was pushing for the elections schedule to be pushed back…… he called up members of the elections board and j-board to complain that this is unfair for outside parties…
plus, the logic of this being a “conspiracy” for alidad is complete nonsense… his competition is george so what would he even gain by having the class council elections uncontested? it sounds like you’re falling for the george-adil propoganda…
@uhm... for the record, it was alidad and glenn thompson who pushed back the elections schedule. i know this because i’m on the committee.
krebs and adil didn’t have any say in this.
@no joseph daniels i don’t vote for smokers. he’ll get a heart attack, lung cancer and emphysema before he can do anything
@Uncontested I think the fact that no one is running against the 2010 and 2011 class is a good indicator this is purely shit. Have fun masturbating together of your awesomeness ’10 and ’11 class councils.
@robyn is cc ’10
@from spec article “I was surprised he took that shot—I thought we were on the same page,” Ahmed said.
This is lame. Adil should admit he made a mistake and move on, not take more swipes against Alidad.
@DRUMMOND FOR AMERICA Now there’s a guy I would want to have a beer with.
@unfair you include both krebs and damooei in your “tags” for this post, yet you left off the noble adil for whom you just created a tag. this is the true tragedy–was there some devious motivation on bwog’s part?
@yoyo mark johnson is incompetant….
he hasnt done shit this year…..we need a new president.
@maybe you are the one who is incompetent*
@Mark is the vice president and he really does a lot. george is the president.
@alexw I am considering registering as a CC student so that I can vote for Colin.
@so what? so what? at least they get things done! who cares what kind of people they are attracted to!
@OBV CPD FTW
@haha class of ’10 are ALL gay–literally.
@Damn Priyaka sucks. I don’t know that kid aaron but he should take her spot. i mean who is she? What has she done?
@ummm don’t forget we can track comments.. if you’re going to trash priyanka twice at least be smart enough to do it from two different computers…
@ind i was hoping someone would run on a platform to abolish student government.
@mallory is by far one of the most competent individuals at columbia and definitely the most capable of leading the senior class. she’s probably only running with mark because he has more council experience and knows more people
@Wait People don’t actually care about this, right?
@Priyanka? Why would she run again? She Doesn’t like ccsc, and she sucks at it….stick to dancing
@Why is the fact that Colin is running so exciting? I don’t know the guy… please fill me in.
@pms http://www.colindrummondisyournewbicycle.com
Yes, we can… with the help of Colin Drummond.
@Horray YAY! Colin is running!
@yayyy aaron is one of the best guys on columbia’s campus. i’m so happy hes running fo ccsc…he’s really cute too
@what about chas carey?
@re: CCSC candidates Holy God you couldn’t pay me to care.
@colin drummond is the man!
