Our Opinion vt>. Let's keep the SGA race clean, ya'll The annual quest for seats in SGA is underway, with Terrell J. Harris and Russell Keen vying for the presidency. What both candidates and the members of OUR. Mi their respective tickets need to remember is to respect the lives of their opponents; we all have to coexist mifeCUBAM&Q peacefully in the next year. So far, the contest has been relatively tame, but on the CAN KffT VOUtt SGA radio show yesterday, tempers were beginning to flair. The participants were not only on the verge of rudeness towards each other; they were not exactly polite to some of the callers. GSU students should demand a clean race. Candidates should be able to win on their own platforms, not by attacking the possible weaknesses in their opponents. Speaking of cleanliness, both tickets must also remember to campaign only in designated areas. They cannot campaign in the Union, Landrum or the residence halls and may only place one flier per bulletin board. Banners must be tied, not stapled or nailed to trees and, more importantly, must be taken down within three days of the end of the election. While the candidates are sure to hand out plenty of fliers, students, if they intend to ignore said fliers, should throw them away in a nearby trash can. There is nothing worse than seeing the pedestrium littered with campaigning materials that have been tossed aside. Regardless of a candidate's platform, the way that a candidate conducts his or her campaign is equally important. The less controversy you cause, the better your chances of being elected.
