Following last year’s meager presi- dential campaign election spending, the 2013 Associated Students Inc. election spending jumped to record levels, according to campaign ex- pense reports released Wednesday. During this year’s race, both can- didates nearly quadrupled spend- ing by last year’s winners, Dwayne Mason, Jr. and Katie Ayala. Each candidate spent about $4,000 on their campaign, but Rohullah La- tif and Johnathan Leggett outspent their campaign rivals Carlos Navarro and Kim Haycraft by roughly $300, spending $4,250 compared to their opponents’ $3,927. Candidates Ryan Quinn and El- oisa Amador were eliminated dur- ing the first round of voting and did not turn in an expense report. Because of this, they are ineligible for future office.
