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.

Davidson SGA Elections 2014: Where we stand, pre-politics

I tweeted earlier asking if there was a student offering insight into the SGA election as an elections observer. I received no responses, so I figured I would spend a few days covering the election politics just for kicks.

I will not reveal my "politics" on these races, but I can't promise I will tone down any snark here. If you want to know who I am considering casting my vote for, please come talk to me in person.
