Thirty-one candidates are standing in next week's elections for seven vacant positions on the Executive.
Two positions were filled unopposed: the Association's Treasurer in 1971 will be Richard Greenfield and this year's Cultural Affairs Officer, Graeme Nesbitt, will continue in that position next year.
A feature of the campaign for the seven vacant Executive positions is the existence of two 'tickets' or parties.
'Rat' or the 'Radical Activists' Ticket', led by former Salient Editor and Council representative Bill Logan, promises to "lead the Association in a more radical direction". "Soap" or 'Surrealistic Operation Action Party', led by Drama Society Vice-President Roy Middleton, "spells the end of personalised attacks between bickering student leaders."
The new position of NZUSA Liaison Officer, instituted by an SGM on 13 July, is the object of a three-way fight.
The election will be held next Tuesday and Wednesday. Vote you bastards.
