Several student groups are claiming that the recent election put on by Associated Students, Inc was subject to voter fraud.

Wednesday's ASI meeting was inundated with protesters who felt the online voting was mishandled or tampered with to sway votes.

"You need to have these issues covered properly or you are walking the legal line," an unknown student called-out during the meeting.

"This is not child's play, if you are part of something I urge you to speak now," he said.

Both the current ASI board and the election commission are looking into the election results but admit they lack the authority or information to push the issue forward until students have written proof of fraud, the election results will remain untouched.

"There's really no proof," said Frankie Griffen, the current BSS representative and a re-elected board member.

"I don't know who [the protesters] are going to get to investigate or what they plan on doing."

Certain students said they were unable to log on during the election period and received little to no feedback from the election commission. Others wondered why there were no voting booths.

"ASI is willing to spend $300,000 on [a consulting firm] but not willing to pay for a voting center. This undermines the credibility of ASI and students ability to participate [in the election]," Samuel Brown, an environmental studies major, said.

The meeting was filled with students from various organizations who said ASI was not keeping the students' interest in mind.

The majority of student's came to support the SOA slate. The SOA was the only opponent of The Slate during the March elections.

The Slate won over 17 of the 19 positions on the ballot.

Peter Koo said it is not uncommon for students to file grievances after an election.

The student body voted on the election results to a 2/2 vote. The majority of the current board was unable to participate in a vote because they ran for re-election. Laura Alarcon and Abdul Awad disapproved the election results, whereas Chris Knox-Davies and Sean Horan voted approved the election results.

Another vote will be held next week.

The board is looking over by-laws to understand the situation at hand and expect to find a resolution by next week.

Morgan Lamb, the election commissioner, said she is doing everything in her power to assure that the results are correct and not tampered with. She said the University is currently looking over the results.

Lamb said she looked over every vote during the election but will support the protestors claim if it in the student interest.

Member of the SOA voiced concern about the credibility of ASI.

Brooke Wojo said she was willing to wash her hands of the election after she lost but still felt there was something wrong with the results. When she spoke to other students about having the administration look into the matter they thought she was joking.

"Everyone in the room laughed. This isn't about me loosing this is about gaining the credibility or sustaining what credibility we have left for ASI," she said.
