Finally, it’s over: CCSC election results are in, and the victory parties underway (continuing 2009 President George Krebs planned a big one, the Sophomore Semi-Formal in Low, at which he was spotted breaking it down with a crown on). Bwog’s poll of earlier this week proved a mostly accurate indicator, and there were few surprises: One Columbia cruised to victory, and in the only other contested class council race, AJ Pascua’s Go party pulled out a narrower win against Toga, with the incumbent trailing almost 15 points behind.
Perhaps more notably: only 34.3% of you voted in the collective 20 hours the polls were open. That’s over 15% fewer than last year. Sure, Diamond v. Chung/Segovia lacked the suspense of Dixit v. Flaxman. But we thought the Core was supposed to make us into better citizens than the average American? Not to moralize or anything.
Full results after the jump.

@happy after all the childish mark modesitt drama that went down early on during campaigning, i’m glad he received the least votes.
@Matt S. But what about Matt Schoenfeld?
@why hasn’t anyone said anything about the turnout. an anemic 34.3%? that’s almost as bad as SEAS http://media.www.columbiaspectator.com/media/storage/paper865/news/2006/04/03/News/Esc-Elections.See.33.Voter.Turnout-2027780.shtml
@read the second paragraph of what bwog said.
@i couldn't agree more. although no one else could even come close to doing the job, one columbia is certainly not going to wow us.
@Wait what about Felipe Tarud?
@what? What about Felipe Tarud? He’s a winner, that’s what!
@i saw felipe and said i voted for you just because your name was mentioned on bwog a whole lot. and he was like who did that. and i was like who cares, people voted for because of the name recognition. it is all about name recognition. so mysterious bwog poster, whoever you are, you are owed due thanks.
@Bethmann-Hollweg Congratulations to One Columbia.
Although to be fair, everyone that voted for them is a moron.
@awwww sour grapes. jealous much?
@Bethmann-Hollweg Sour grapes?
Not really – CCSC can fuck right off, in my humble opinion.
I didn’t vote.
I am Democracy.
@Prof. Obvious Student Government:Columbia::Vichy France:Nazi Germany
@umm STUDENT GOVERNMENT IS LAME/
@cmon cynics 14 posts until that comment? i expected a faster response.
@Anonymous WOOOOOO HOOOOOOO!!!! Congratulations everybody!
@Well Last year they set up a voting tent on Low Plaza, which since there were so many people on the steps at the time, I’m sure had a lot to do with more people voting. Plus, they gave out stickers. Stickers are key.
@There were stickers this year. I saw some.
@weather well, the elections were also nearly almost a month before last year’s, so in planning the election, the board could not assume that it would be as nice outside as it has been at the end of march. it would have hurt voter turn out even more if there had been a tent and it was 20 degrees outside…
@Wang is the man Senator Wang……..! Yeah!
@bwog poll sucks Blog pull is totally inaccurate for senate race. don’t believe poll http://bwog.net/index.php?page=post&article_id=3326&poll8=results&all_polls=results
@2008 uncontested
silliness
great advertising
@HAHA Eric Wang? wow, no wonder undergrads get ignored by the u senate…
@hallelujah thank god dan free didn’t win
@boo! dan would have been awesome! :-(
@it's obvious the low turnout was at least partly because of uncontested class races. 2010 had 200 votes more than 2008 or 2009, both of whom hardly had any reason to vote in this election.
@boo Wang is a tool.
@yay i love eric wang!
