Among other campaign planks, Driskell and Burton say they will put response cards in the dining halls for students to submit comments and complaints to the council. Driskell has also vigorously endorsed the Harvard Census 2000 project, a campus-wide survey which she says will reveal what students would like to change about their undergraduate experiences.
This morning's announcement ends over two weeks of nearly non-stop campaigning by the candidates, who said the process has brought them to near exhaustion.
"I've never been more weary than I am right now," Plants said before he heard the final results.
The mood was somber at gatherings put together by many of the losing candidates.
Frank X. Leonard '01 said he doubted that he and his running mate Katie E. Tenney '01 would remain on council.
"To be honest, it's in question at this point," he said.
Leonard nevertheless declared a Pyrrhic victory.
"Our goal from the outset was to get more students involved in U.C. politics, and tonight we have 50 people at a campaign party, none of whom are in the U.C.--mission accomplished," Leonard said.
