But Plants, like his opponents, is eager to get his flyers up in prominent places too. Seeing posters for a bone marrow registry drive sponsored by the Asian American Brotherhood, he happily pulls out his stapler and tacks his flyers on top of theirs.
"They're totally not a student group," he says, unaware that the new group was recognized by the dean's office just three weeks ago.
Like Plants, Dreyfus is without a gaggle of postering supporters.
"I'll get people [to help poster]," he says. "I'm not so much an organization as a grassroots movement."
It's a phrase he repeats often when asked how he expects to beat his well-organized opponents.
True to his word, he runs into a friend standing outside Matthews Hall. "Hey, want to poster for me?" He asks, handing her a stack. "Sure," she shrugs. After a brief chat, Dreyfus moves on.
"You see that?" he says. "That's what I'm talking about. Grassroots campaigning."
