Mike Waters is an Unperson
![](http://www.studentunion.ca/uploaded_images/waters-784846.gif)
Those familiar with my earlier coverage (here, here, and here) of the UVSS (University of Victoria Students' Society) 2006 general elections will know that Mike Waters was a candidate with the "Students for Students" slate for Chairperson, facing off against incumbent Penny Beames and independent candidate Chadi Akouri. But one would not know that simply by looking at the UVSS homepage. Said homepage now contains the "2006/7 UVSS Final Election Results," (PDF) but Mr. Waters' name appears nowhere on these results. For Chairperson, the Final Election Results simply state that there were two opponents for Chairperson: Penny Beames and Chadi Akouri, and that Beames beat Akouri 962 to 680 votes. The results did not even indicate that Mr. Waters had been disqualified....
All of which contradict the latest relevant minutes of the UVSS Board meeting that have been posted online, wherein the Board refused to reverse the decision of the UVSS Elections Committee not to disqualify Mr. Waters for alleged electoral infractions.

Wow... just wow...
Wow is all I can manage.
if this is what it sounds like, then just wow.
Could a court actually backed Penny's overt rigging of the election?
