Davidson SGA Elections 2014: After the debate

Before you read this commentary, please read Lincoln Davidson's coverage of the debate at DavidsonNews.

If you want to look at my (previously) live-tweets on the subject of the SGA Debate, here's a widget of my tweets tagged with #SGADebate. (SGA Debate)



I want to keep this as general as possible, in order to keep any unnecessary bias infiltrate my writing. First, I'm going to give an overview of the performance of each candidate. Then I'm going to talk about how this debate changed the field (if at all). Finally, I'll conclude with some more general comments on the debate as a whole - what I was pleased to hear and what I am saddened was left out from the discussion.
