Show Alleged rule violations undermine elections party concerning campaigning near election booths, among other things, would be pursued. "People have a tendency not to look at the rules," said Rob Odle, chairman of Elections Elec-tions Committee. He said his committee's main concerns are with campaign budgets and clean-up after the elections. He also said he does not "go around looking for violations." They are trying to clear up . problems as they arise. If and when election violations are submitted, sub-mitted, . they will be ruled upon by Judiciary Committee. A problem has popped up with that committee. Ac cording to its chairman, Steve Erdmann, there is room for seven people in the committee but there are only four people left. The others have resigned during the year. According to Mr. Erdmann there must be at least five members on Judiciary Committee before it can deal with any election violations. To make a legally functioning committee, Crover Thompson, studentbody president, must nominate the new members. Then the ASUU Assembly must ratify his nominations. To further complicate things, there will be no assembly meeting this week due to the elections. "I don't know what's going to happen," said Mr. Erdmann. Concerning the assembly's ratification of new members on Judiciary Committee Mr. Erdmann said, "There could be a bunch of politics in the decision that shouldn't be there." The winner of this week's election for studentbody president will, take office the third Friday of spring quarter. Whoever that is will be sworn in by a member of Judiciary Committee. Steve Erdmann said the new president of ASUU will not take office until all election violations are cleared up. It is turning out to be an interesting in-teresting election indeed. , i By TIM ST.
