As Race Opens, Council Tickets Vie for Votes

Candidates woo voters with fake money, pizza

Outside, in front of the Science Center, candidate Matthew Zanotelli '02 and his vice-presidential candidate John A. Bash '03 passed out campaign literature to students featuring the campaign slogan "More money. More food. More sex."

Yesterday's theme was more money, so Bash handed out small pieces of paper labeled "Bashcash."

Tomorrow and Friday will each have a different theme, he added. He declined to say what he'll pass out on "More food day" tomorrow or on "More sex day" on Friday.

Gusmorino and vice presidential candidate Sujean S. Lee '03 kicked off their campaign with a pizza party in Leverett House Sunday evening, explaining to nearly 40 volunteers the reasons for their campaign.

He also unveiled their website, capitalizing on the campaign theme of "We did it before, We'll do it again." The website involves full motion animation, sound and music.

Gusmorino's bright-orange posters sparked grumbling among rival campaigns, who complained his posters--the only posters that mentioned issues--claimed credit for achievements Gusmorino's ticket didn't do.

For instance, Barkley campaign manager Jeffrey A. Letalien '01 said, Gusmorino's posters claim he will bring The Roots to play on campus, Feb. 14, 2001--something that is already planned.
